Notes on data, analysis and

Data for this polyline shapefile were obtained from Nampower. The national overview map as presented in the Rural

 

compilation:

Electricity Distribution Master Plan for Namibia (EMCON. 2000) was used as a reference and framework for this

 

 

shapefile. The data were converted to geographic projection from the original Lambert projected data with the

 

 

following parameters:

 

 

Origin = -22

 

 

1st parallel = -20

 

 

2nd parallel = -26, and

 

 

Central meridian = 19 E
