CSO Mapping Trends
• Pre-1979
– Updating rural settlement locations on 1:50k
maps
– Updating urban settlement locations from
aerial photographs
– Free-hand drawing of enumerators area
sketch maps
CSO Mapping Trends
• Post-1979
– Updating existing rural settlement locations
on 1:50k and 1:100k maps
– Updating existing urban settlement locations
on 1:5k and 1:10k maps
– Delineating nomads settlement locations on
1:250k maps
CSO Recent Mapping Activities
• Post-2002
– Updating location of over 38,000 villages
nation-wide and free-hand delineation of
enumerators area sketch maps
– Pre-listing of households in every residential
building nation-wide
– Estimating the number of persons per village
– Gathering of demographic and socioeconomic profile of 1 out of every 200
households
CSO Recent Mapping Activities
• From mid-2005
– Training local capacity for digital mapping
– Digitization of 2173 topographical map
sheets
– Digital Geo-rectification of base maps
– Establishment of a Geo-database for local
administrative boundaries
– Digitization of province and district
boundaries, and village locations
– Demarcating E.As and C.As
CSO Mapping Products
• Finished products
– Digitally geo-rectified mosaic of 1:50K
topographical map sheets covering
Afghanistan
– Interoperable Geo-database for local
administrative boundaries
– Digital spatial datasets (i.e. map frames for
34 provinces and 398 districts)
– Hierarchical geo-codes for national and local
administrative areas up to sub-village level
