This policy note highlights some issues concerning spatial data infrastructures (SDIs) and similar systems in South Africa, which aim at providing integrated, harmonized, quality geospatial data sets readily, quickly and affordably to users. SDIs are particularly useful for supporting evidence-based planning. Please note that there is a variety of terms used for geospatial data, but they are all essentially synonyms: spatial, spatially-referenced, geographical, geographically-referenced, geo-referenced or geo, data or information. The term geospatial shall be used here.
