Why would this info on the borders of the TVBC states be restricted? I have
written an email to Mr Ritter yesterday requesting the data. Have not
received a response yet, but maybe there will be a resonse during the day.
Thank you
Johan Horn

    Just an update

    "DWA's GIS section has a copy"

    It would appear from the DWA website that this data is restricted ie 
    not publically accessible ?

    I have had another pointer

    --------------------
    Following up on Aninka's email to you, I managed to find maps
    reflecting traditional boundaries from the 

    Municipal Demarcation Board in Pretoria.

    Their contact details are as follows:
    1166 Park Street, Block B2, iParioli Park, Hatfield, Pretoria. 
    Tel: 012 342 2481.
    ==================

    Is there anyone here from this department or who has dealings with them 
    that can expand on their holdings ?


    Has anyone had a look at the work of Prof Emmeritus A.J.Christopher
    ( now semi-retired)

    http://geosci.nmmu.ac.za/staff

    "The Atlas of Changing South Africa"

    I would surmise that he would have some insights
