[OSGeo Africa] Schedule for new NGO aerial photos

[Aslam Parker]

Good day

Our current funding model allows us to fly the whole country in a 3-4 year cycle at 0.25m GSD. At the end of this current financial year (by March 2023) we hope to have the first blanket coverage of the country at 0.25m. (previous coverages was at 0.5m). The status of our orthorectified imagery can be obtained from our website at https://ngi.dalrrd.gov.za/index.php/what-we-do/aerial-photography-and-imagery/35-colour-digital-aerial-imagery-at-0-5m-gsd-2008-2016-and-0-25m-gsd-2017-current (apologies for the long URL).


The entire Western Cape has been flown between (2021- late 2022) and most of the areas has been orthorectified. We are finalising the orthorectification for the last two ¼ degree squares areas which was delayed due to technical issues.

Although the individual images are available of the portal, there is no new mosaic on the portal http://www.cdngiportal.co.za/cdngiportal/  as we are migrating to an internally hosted portal.

Regardless, all the imagery is available from sales at dalrrd.gov.za<mailto:sales at dalrrd.gov.za>


Kind Regards ....*

Hi Glenn

I believe the policy is to fly the whole country at least every two years and also keep topo maps no more than four years out of date.

Hopefully Aslam or someone else from NGI will respond.

When the new SASDI EMC and DCPR (data capture project registry) is launched in the next month or two, that is where data custodian data capture projects, such as aerial photography requests, will be available, provided the custodians populate them, which they are obliged to do.
