[OSGeo Africa] PLAAS Fact check No1 An Overview of Distribution of Land in South Africa

[Tim Sutton]

Hi Aslam

Is there any public access to the spatial datasets used to derive these
stats? It would be great as a matter of course to make such datasets
publicly available under a free license so that folks in the GIS community
can interpret the data for themselves (in addition to these nice summaries
etc.). It will also lend some credibility to, and allow fact checking of
products such as the one you have attached.


Regards

Tim
