Hi

We are updating our National Map and Southern African map which includes information on neighboring countries

Where can we get shapefiles of:
1. National Parks and conservation areas of Mozambique, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe

2. Towns/Cities/ Settlements relevant at the 1: 2 000 000 scale. Although I have a points later, we need the settlement/city /town polygon layer so that areas of significant size can be shown as areas and not as points. An indication of population would also be useful for appropriate cartographic representation.

Your advice is always appreciated.
