This project was to develop guidelines for spatial data content standards in Africa. It focused on standards for data dictionaries, feature catalogues and classification, and also looked at standards for feature instances. The project deliberately did not address metadata, as much work has already been done on metadata in Africa.
With funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the project was initiated by the Eros Data Center (DEC) of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) with EIS-Africa and executed by the CSIR.
