Aslam might disagree, but his department (admittedly another directorate -
SPI) is constructing "El Dorado". Think spatial data from 13 sector
departments and some parastatals; each of the 700 plus spatial layers
assigned to a data custodian (responsible official); access over the
internet plus WMS and possibly WFS.
I cant elaborate, because it keeps me too busy :-)

Seeing as ALL government employees have already gone home I suppose it
is
now safe to talk freely
( Ok ok I am joking ..... )
I do not know about other areas but for KZN this might help
http://devplan.kzntl.gov.za/MapsGis/whatisGis.asp
The Cadastral Data Capture Project is interesting
Other data appears to be available as well
Why so quiet Mr Sam Yirenkyi ( Does GISSA not read this mail list ? )
I seem to have found a bit of an "El Dorado" ( why did I never ever
find
this site before ? Useless GOOGLE )
