SCDB – “In the beginning …” WALIS Cadastre Workshop 2012 “A general observation after talking with various users is the concept of the SCDB appears to be all things to all people and as such has problems delivering all the goods. It should be remembered that the initial intention of the SCDB was to provide a cadastral information base.” SCDB Development Strategy – User Liaison document (August 1992)
