[OSGeo Africa] 5m and 10m NGI contours- Dugal

Dear Dugal

Yes that is the best we have for that area. The programmatically captured contours are generally referred to as 5m contours, however in very steep areas of the country we do capture them at 10m only. So if you downloading the contour datasets from the geoportal that is identified as 5m contours you will find that some are 10m intervals.

Hope this clears the matter

Regards
Raoul

Good day

Thanks so much for all the responses.  I have 10m NGI contours now for this block.  I think this is the best they have for this area.

Keep well
Dugal
