The project took place in Katima Mulilo and Rundu during 2007-11. The project consisted of 66 township extensions, and resulted in 18,500 plots developed in a period of 5 years. The project was funded by LUX Development, the cooperation agency from Luxemburg, which poured significant funds to make the project possible. One of the innovation aspects was to do the topographic and cadastral mapping in parallel with the layout and design. This was done by teams consisting of a town planner, a surveyor , and community facilitators selected by the inhabitants of the settlement in question.

How does one build up an analysis? And how does one create the link between the individual partial-analyses
in a problem-oriented project work? These are the two main issues that this booklet gives an overview of.
This document is a presentation of a way in which an analysis, a sub-project and a project can be structured.

This document provides the focus for an integrated approach to research in the land, livelihoods and housing sectors in Namibia. Its thematic approach seeks to facilitate multi-disciplinary research projects that will reflect the wide range of skills existing in the School of Natural Resources and Spatial Sciences (SNRSS) at the Polytechnic of Namibia (PoN). It is unique in that it has all land related disciplines in one School and is therefore well placed to become a leading research centre.

Theory and seaborne measurements are presented for the near infrared (NIR: 700–900 nm) water-leaving reflectance in turbid waters. According to theory, the shape of the NIR spectrum is determined largely by pure water absorption and is thus almost invariant. A ‘‘similarity’’ NIR reflectance spectrum is defined by normalization at 780 nm. This spectrum is calculated from seaborne reflectance measurements and is compared with that derived from laboratory water absorption measurements. Factors influencing the shape of the similarity spectrum are analyzed

In the light of the global discussion on
reducing public and private expenditure on
cadastral processes and services, this
article reviews the transaction costs of
land registration, based on data gathered in
Namibia. The data show a large
differentiation in the types of costs
incurred in the process, as well as various
levels of cost recovery. In addition, the
degree to which delays in the operational
registration processes influence the total
cost to land developers and landowners is
reviewed.
