There are a lot of shapefiles showing different aspects of groundwater resources, like the harvest potential, groundwater occurrence with yield, groundwater quality, and the groundwater vulnerability, most of which produced by Vegter a couple of years ago. All the shapefiles have a lot of columns and you really need to know what they mean to get something useful out of them.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>These maps were the basis of several newer maps/shapefiles produced for the 1:500000 groundwater resources map series, which are difficult to get hold of in the public domain so I would contact DWS and find out what they have and in what format they can provide it (good luck!). But for most of my projects I have worked with the Vegter shapefiles, which I have seen were used by other consultants to produce totally wrong results (no idea how they got to some of the figures for yields/potential etc.), so one needs to be really careful when using them. I am, however, not sure if these shapefiles are in the public domain, I certainly haven't found any website or link where they can be downloaded.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>Please let me know if I can assist with anything else.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>Regards</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>Immo</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On 12/08/2016 08:15, Wilma Nel wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><div><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-top:5.0pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Good morning,</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Can some-one perhaps give me the webaddress(if available) to download a layer/shapefile of the underground water resources in Limpopo?</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Thanking you in anticipation</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Mrs W P Nel</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Assistant Database Officer</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>MOGALAKWENA MUNICIPALITY</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>MOKOPANE</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>LIMPOPO</span><o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><br><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><pre>_______________________________________________<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>Africa mailing list<o:p></o:p></pre><pre><a href="mailto:Africa@lists.osgeo.org">Africa@lists.osgeo.org</a><o:p></o:p></pre><pre>You can UNSUBSCRIBE at <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/africa">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/africa</a><o:p></o:p></pre></blockquote><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>-- <o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p><strong>Immo F.
