What is to be achieved?

The capture of the South African Urban Cadastral Database in digital format into a continuous geographic database for every province, and capture the enumerated census areas for those urban areas that have not yet been completed in Project Miracle.

How?

• Negotiate with local authorities and other owners of digital data for the use of their data within the provided mandate
• Get external contractors to convert this data into UCD format after getting quotes for this work
• Check this digital data for accuracy, completeness and key (unique identifier) correctness
• Featurize this data
• Import the featurized data into the master database
• Put out tenders for the capture of data from general plans for areas where no digital data exists
• Scan and vectorise data for which there is no digital data available, and for which there are no general plans available
• Capture the enumerated census areas from maps supplied by Statistics South Africa.
