Abstract | [Abstract]: Catchment management is characterised by multiple stakeholders and multiple goals which cut across traditional as well as administrative boundaries. It requires an integrated management approach as different institutions and individuals work together towards sustainable catchment outcomes. Spatial data plays an important role in formulating many catchment decisions. An increasingly problematic issue for catchment decisions is the availability and access of spatial data. Although the spatial data may be available, they may not be useful due to different standards, content or scale. The importance of spatial data to solving multiple issues concerning catchment management creates a growing need to organise data across disciplines and organisations through the development of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI).
