The National Wetlands Map III (NWM3) is a combination of NWM2 extracted from the National Land Cover 2000 dataset and the Waterbodies of the 1:50 000 of topomaps from Chief Directorate Surveys and Mapping (CDSM). These two datasets were further categorized into natural waterbodies, artificial waterbodies and unclassified waterbodies.

Map of the vegetation types of South Africa (including Prince Edward and Marion Islands), Lesotho and Swaziland. There are 440 zonal and azonal vegetation types mapped at a working scale of 1:250 000 and sometimes better. The map is the result of a collaborative project involving about 60 individual contributors from a number of organizations. Recommended projections of decimal degrees data: South Africa: Use in view with Map units decimal degrees, Distance units kilometers, or projected view with map units meters, projection Albers, WGS84, Central meridian 24, Reference latitude 0, Standard parallel 1 -32, Standard parallel 2 -18, no false Easting or Northing. Prince Edward Islands: Data are in UTM projection, WGS84, Central Meridian 37 E. Use in view with Map units meters, Distance units kilometers.

Latest update of the Sub-Antarctic Marine Ecosystem Map
-
Latest update of the Sub-Antarctic Terrestrial Ecosystem map which is synonymous with the map of the vegetation of Marion and the Prince Edward Islands in the National Vegetation Map Project. This is the first update since 2006 and includes an edit to shift the 2006 National Vegetation Map polygon for Prince Edward island (which was offset from the imagery of the island in the 2006 version) to its correct position which now aligns with global imagery.

NBA2018_Terrestrial Ecosystem Threat Status and Protection level remaining extent layer is associated with the NBA2018_Terrestrial Ecosystem Threat Status and Protection level. While the a NBA2018_Terrestrial Ecosystem Threat Status and Protection level remaining extent provides the data for Protection level and threat status for the historical (pre 1750AD) extent of the terrestrial ecosystems, this layer shows the protection level and threat status of the current remaining extent of terrestrial ecosystems. More detail can be found in NBA 2018 Technical Report Volume 1: Terrestrial Realm, http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12143/6370
