District Municipalities 2018 is a shapefile and attributes information of all the district municipalities in South Africa. In the hierarchy of local government structure, the District Municipalities are contained within Provinces, then District Municipalities contain Local Municipalities. District Municipalities 2018 was published in the Year 2018 after the municipal boundaries had minor technical adjustments.
<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The district (Category C) municipalities are municipalities that are comprised of local (Category B) municipalities. The Metropolitan (Category A) Municipalities are municipalities with the major cities as the core (e.g. City of Johannesburg) and they are outside the District Municipalities. When the boundaries of local municipalities change and affect the boundary of district municipalities, the new district municipal boundary is generated. In the District Municipalities 2018 shapefile there are 44 District Municipalities and 8 Metropolitan Municipalities. </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Note that Metropolitan Municipalities are included in the District Municipalities shapefile to ensure that the layer is continuous throughout the country. If the Metropolitan Municipalities were left out, there will be void spaces in the layer. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The topology of the features has been checked to eliminate duplications of vertices and ensure the integrity of the feature geometry. The projection of the feature class is </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Geographic (Lat/Lon)</SPAN><SPAN /><SPAN>and if one has to calculate the area of features, it must be transformed to UTM Projection and metres be used as units of measurements.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
