Subject: [OSGeo Africa] Census data - some resolution

 

Hi,

I wrote to this list a couple of weeks ago about getting Census data out
of Stats SA.

Since I have finally gotten some joy, from them, I thought I'd share my
good fortune with this list.

A guy named Mathews Phiri from Stats SA sent me the following:

Please note that the census information is available, at ward level,  on
StatsOnline (www.statssa.gov.za <http://www.statssa.gov.za> ). Click on
the Community Profile button. On the list of data bases select the
"Community Profile" again. You will then see a display of the community
profiles; select Census 2011. You may then select a theme that will show
the variables and their associated classifications. Any table produced
can be downloaded (saved as) on your local drive.  The direct link, to
the community profiles, is
http://interactive.statssa.gov.za/superweb/login.do
<http://interactive.statssa.gov.za/superweb/login.do>  The community
profiles at sub-place level will be available end of March 2013. 

 

The Community profiles are also available as a product on DVD at a cost
of R300.

I have managed to use their system to select the data I need and
download it. It's not quite at the level of spatial detail that I was
hoping for, but it's better than what I had before.

Happy downloading.

Hanlie
