Official Planning Suburbs

The Development Management Department maintains the City’s Suburb dataset. Suburbs are basically residential regions within the City of Cape Town, determined by the City with the intention of administering areas more efficiently. Therefore the City changes Suburb boundaries or incorporate new Suburb areas at times for various reasons, mainly when new developments take place. An example would be the new Suburb of Clara Anna Fontein which is a direct result of the new development. Suburbs form the last part of the Official Situational Address for each property.

Formal Protections HPOZ Municipal Planning By-Law

The City of Cape Town, in order to fulfil its obligation to sustainable development, must promote economic and social development, as well as promoting the conservation and protection of the natural and cultural environment. The City of Cape Town is a competent local authority in terms of the NHRA. The identification and management of Grade III heritage resources are the responsibility of the competent local authority.The Municipal Planning By-Law (2015) (MPBL) was enacted by the City of Cape Town from 1 July 2015 and replaced 2013 Cape Town Zoning Scheme. Included in this By-Law is the concept of overlay zonings. The overlay zoning provides a mechanism to designate either city-wide or localised development management rules to deal with specific concerns, over and above the provisions of a base zoning. One such overlay zone is the Heritage Protection Overlay (HPO). The Heritage Protection Overlay within the DMS is the mechanism for the protection of heritage places and areas that are considered conservation worthy in terms of the City’s heritage strategies and the National Heritage Resources Act (Act 25 of 1999) (NHRA). Schedule 3, Division II Item 18 states: “All Heritage Protection Overlay Zones as published in the Provincial Gazette are deemed to be heritage areas in accordance with the NHRA.” All spatial layers are served live from internal systems, an item's "Last Updated" or "Publish Date" refers to the Metadata only.

Tree Canopies

This dataset represents the extent of the City of Cape Town’s Tree Canopy. This dataset was generated in order to provide the Recreation and Parks with a better understating of the extent of; and to aid its management decision making in relation to this green infrastructure.A Near Infra-Red (NIR) imagery dataset was acquired simultaneously with the 2018 aerial imagery. The NIR dataset was then combined into the Colour Infra-Red (CIR) composite where plant health shows up as red. A height mask of ground height to 2.75m and above was then used to remove undesirable features such as lawns and bushes using LiDAR and an auto-correlated DSM. Feature extraction using sample selections were then applied to the CIR to select all vegetation over 2.75m above ground. Input data was packaged into a 5 x 5km grid, comprising of 147 blocks across the City.Data then underwent manual GIS cleaning and quality control based on the 2018 aerial imagery, to remove anomalies from the dataset and to conduct edge-matching along the grid boundaries.

City of Cape Town Ground Level Map 2m Contours (CCT GLM 2019)

The City of Cape Town Ground Level Map 2019 is defined in the City of Cape Town Municipal Planning Amendment By-law, 2019 as: “‘City of Cape Town Ground Level Map’ means a map approved in terms of the development management scheme, indicating the existing ground level based on floating point raster’s and a contour dataset from LiDAR information available to the City”. The Ground Level Map was approved by the City Council on the 27th July 2023. Contour lines connect a series of points of equal elevation and are used to illustrate topography, or relief, on a map and can be drawn at various desired intervals. This dataset displays contours drawn at every 2m height interval. Numerous contours that are close together indicate hilly or mountainous terrain; and when far apart, they represent a gentler slope. The contours were derived from LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data that was captured in 3 blocks in the years 2018 to 2019. The LiDAR point cloud has a density of 2 to 3 points per square metre at a vertical accuracy of 0.1m (95%). The 5m DEM is derived from the LiDAR dataset and has a vertical accuracy of 0.3m. The contours are derived through bipolar interpolation from the 5m DEM raster. According to the vertical accuracy standard, the 2m contours must be accurate to half the contour interval value. In other words, the 2m contour dataset has a vertical accuracy of 1m. The height reference used is the SA Land Levelling Datum and the SAGEOID2010 was employed. Accuracy Statement: The standard vertical accuracy of contours stipulates that the elevation of 90 percent of all points tested must be correct within half of the contour interval. For the Ground Level Map with 2m contours 90 percent of all points tested must show correctly within 1 metre of the actual elevation.
