The SKEP expert maps (Amphibians, Birds, Fish, Insect, Invertebrates, Mammals, Plants, Reptiles) were mapped by experts on 1:250 000 topocadastral maps and digitized by Benis Egoh (IPC).

This data was used to set conservation priorities in the SKEP region.

Data was drawn on several 1:250 000 topocadastral maps. Each of these maps were digitized and saved as a separate shape file. All of the shape files were then merged into a single file. A standard data form was used to capture the attribute data. This was entered into MS Access and edited in an MS Excel spreadsheet. The attributes were then linked to the shape files.Polygon topology was checked using ARCINFO software.
