GIS Map

SCAN developed a GIS map to display the types and reach of socio-economic development services offered by civil society organisations and institutions in Stellenbosch communities.

The map displays the names, contact details, fields of service and geographical reach of the organisations.

The first GIS map was developed pro bono by TV3 Architects and Town Planners and the final map was finalised on ESRI with the support of Ranyaka Community Transformation.  Thank you to these two organisations for sponsoring their valuable time and services.
