The 5m DEM is derived from the LiDAR2019B dataset (consisting of the 2018, 2019A and 2019B datasets). The 5m DEM has a vertical accuracy of 30cm. The height reference used is the SA Land Levelling Datum and the SAGEOID2010 was employed.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.All Raster Image Services (REST):https://cityimg.capetown.gov.za/erdas-iws/esri/GeoSpatial%20Datasets/rest/services/All Raster Image Services (WMS):Use URL below to add WMS Server Connection in ArcGIS Desktop, ArcPro, QGIS, AutoCAD, etc.https://cityimg.capetown.gov.za/erdas-iws/ogc/wms/GeoSpatial Datasets?service=WMS&request=getcapabilities&For a copy or subset of this dataset, please contact the City Maps Office: city.maps@capetown.gov.zaCCT Ground Level Map: ‘How to Access’ Guide – External Users: CCT Ground Level Map: ‘How to Access’ Guide – External Users | Open Data Portal (arcgis.com)Geomatics Ground Level Map Explainer: Geomatics Ground Level Map Explainer | Open Data Portal (arcgis.com)Land Use Management Ground Level Map Explainer: Land Use Management Ground Level Map Explainer | Open Data Portal (arcgis.com)
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 5m 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 2 blocks in the years 2021 and 2023. The southern half of the City was flown in Jan 2023 and the northern half was flown in Dec 2021. The point cloud has a density of 10 points per square metre and a vertical accuracy of 0.1m (95%). The contours are derived through bipolar interpolation from the 5m DEM (raster) model. The height reference used is the SA Land Levelling Datum.All spatial layers are served live from internal systems, an item's "Last Updated" or "Publish Date" refers to the Metadata only.REST Endpoint access: https://citymaps.capetown.gov.za/agsext1/rest/services/Theme_Based/Open_Data_Service/FeatureServer/15

Species' threat assessments produce generalized threat impact scores, often by considering regional-scale representations of threats. Cities, on the other hand, produce municipal-scale, high resolution data that are proxies for threats; furthermore, cities in mega-diverse regions are home to a high number of threatened species. Prioritization of conservation action is biased for where more information is known (about the ecosystem), and where a positive outcome can be anticipated. Eight Cape peninsula amphibian species have a threatened conservation status. They are isolated on highlands or are restricted to remnant and suburban habitats, dependent on both urban and protected terrestrial and freshwater habitats found in the City of Cape Town and Table Mountain National Park.
In Chapter Two, I used spatial data (shapefiles) to represent threats in a Geographic Information System to spatially define threats to eight amphibian species (five lowland, three upland). I used two approaches: weighted and un-weighted by a threat impact-score, to produce five indices of local threats. The Micro Frog (Microbatrachella capensis) is assessed as the most threatened peninsula frog species by three of the five indices considered. The results show that for lowland species, the threat-class of greatest extent is 'Residential and commercial development'. The three lowland species most exposed to this threat are M. capensis (100% exposed to potential development), Breviceps gibbosus (55.6% of its 8.5 km2 putative peninsula distribution), and Sclerophrys pantherina (38.4% of its 199.7 km2 distribution). The Compounded and the General Threat Index correlate to the (global) Redlist Index (P < 0.05); but no correlation to the regional Red Listing, indicating congruency of threats and threat status.
The Critically Endangered Table Mountain Ghost Frog (Heleophryne rosei) is torrent adapted, and found only on the Table Mountain massif. CapeNature monitors tadpoles, and SANParks monitors (selected) stream parameters. In Chapter Three, I analyse water-habitat monitoring data (controlled for altitude) to show where threats of habitat alteration, drought, or temperature extremes may affect the H. rosei metapopulation. Permanence of water-flow and water temperature are shown to be very highly significant predictors of tadpole presence (p = 0.0005, r = 0.78). The lower the water temperature, the more likely tadpoles are present. Streams with a mean summer temperature greater than 17.2°C (n=3) at 400 to 300 meters above sea level were found to have no tadpoles at this altitude. Permanence of water flow is significant, as tadpoles need more than one year to reach metamorphosis. Summer water temperatures over an average of 17.2°C should be a red-flag for management authorities responsible for bulk-water supply, threat mitigation efforts, and biodiversity conservation.
Spatial indices of threat are useful to illustrate the relative exposure to threats at a local (city) scale. Threats to different lowland amphibians are similar (e.g. residential and commercial development), which varies from the mutual threats to different upland amphibians. Fundamental to stream species' conservation is water supply and demand management, while upland terrestrial species are most affected by veld age and invasive alien flora. Some threats are common for both areas (e.g. invasive alien species).

The Development Management department (DM) maintains the City’s Street Name Dataset. This dataset is integral to the maintenance of Situational Addresses as each Address Number is linked to a specific road. All Street Names are maintained according to the City’s Street Naming and Numbering Policy. Each new development must be provided with Street Names (indicated on the submitted Sub divisional or Consolidation Plans). These new Street Names are then checked by DM to ensure compliance with the policy prior to the approval of new developments. Street Names are captured in a Line Feature Class (indicating where each road will run) and is On ramped to SAP LUM (Land Use Management) as part of the Situational Addresses.All spatial layers are served live from internal systems, an item's "Last Updated" or "Publish Date" refers to the Metadata only.
The 2D footprint dataset represents building roof footprint extents and should not be confused with the building industry floor footprint.
