Abstract
This paper reviews the development and methodology of a workshop on the application of spatial information in the implementation of land reform in South Africa. The specific methods of spatial information dealt with include aerial photographs, maps of the national series and cadastral records. The delivery of land rights is the core business of the Department of Land Affairs in South Africa. At the same time, translating this statement into practice remains one of the greatest challenges facing South Africa. In order to do this the people driving this process must be skilled in the application of specific spatial information. First, a frame of reference on developing map-reading skills is presented; second, there is a review the development and implementation of the workshop. Third, the findings of the workshop are expanded upon. In conclusion we have a look at the way ahead.
