[OSGeo Africa] Mines and Quarries

[Aslam Parker]

Dear Frank

In additional to the land cover data mentioned by Luncedo, NGI does have the following feature class and associated attributes in its topographic data:

PHYS_LANDFORM_ARTIFICIAL:

289   Cutting
291   Embankment
292   Excavation
293   Mine Dump
294   Mine Dump Top   (Use :298 )
295   Open Cast Mine
297   Slimes Dam
298   Artificial terrain crest
299   Mine Head Gear
471   Digging

Not all of them have geonames, but many do. Have you contacted DME?

Morning Frank

There are mines and quarries for the country on the land cover dataset.  Its database might not have names but surely you will get location and you can take it from there.

The contact person is Julile, email: Julile.Sihlangu at drdlr.gov.za

Regards
Luncedo

Hi list members,

Does anyone know of a publicly available dataset showing the names and locations of mines and quarries in Gauteng?

Regards, Frank.
