• Spatial information used in various institutions
• High cost and duplication of data collection
• Data incompatibility and the need for standards
• Limited resources within government
• Effective, efficient and economic use of resources
• A component was established in then Department of Land Affairs in 1997 to drive the development of Spatial Data Infrastructure in South Africa = NSIF
• 28 April 1999, Cabinet mandated the DRDLR to develop tools(legislative, technical, administrative etc) to address these issues
• Cabinet endorsement of NSIF (29 April 1999)

– The Data Custodian or Data Vendor must respond, in a prescribed time and manner, to the user or data vendor after receiving the report on that deficiency;
– A data custodian have the responsibility to ensure that a base dataset is collected and maintained according to specifications and priorities determined in consultation with the CSI and the user community;
– Data custodian is responsible for the data capture, validation, maintenance, management, archiving and documenting, including the principles and procedures for accuracy, currency, metadata, data storage and security.
– The Data Custodian is regarded as the authoritative source for the base dataset in its care and therefore is required to keep such dataset up-to-date.
Responsibilities of a Data Custodian and Vendor
![Page 17: WORK OF THE COMMITTEE FOR SPATIAL INFORMATION AS ... · maintenance of spatial information, • ensure integration and management of information •maximizing resources within government](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022043019/5f3bc851196db77572146069/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

– It is the responsibility of a Base Data Coordinator to ensure that the Base Spatial Data Custodian and the Base Attribute Data Custodian create a Base Dataset that adheres to all policies and standards and specifications.
– The Base Data Coordinator will also be responsible for ensuring data compatibility and integration of different Data Custodians for the same base dataset but with adjoining geographical coverage.
– Data custodians shall work together to facilitate data and information sharing in order to avoid duplication of data capture and cost to all spheres of government
– Data custodians should, where possible consult users in line with Batho Pele principles in determining needs when capturing or updating spatial information.
