qdgc Swaziland

QDGC tables delivered in geopackage file - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - QDGC represents a way of making (almost) equal area squares covering a specific area to represent specific qualities of the area covered. The squares themselves are based on the degree squares covering earth. Around the equator we have 360 longitudinal lines , and from the north to the south pole we have 180 latitudinal lines. Together this gives us 64800 segments or tiles covering earth. Within each geopackage file you will find a number of tables with these names: -tbl_qdgc_01 -tbl_qdgc_02 -tbl_qdgc_03 -tbl_qdgc_04 -tbl_qdgc_05 -etc The attributes for each table are: qdgc Unique Quarter Degree Grid Cell reference string area_reference Country level_qdgc QDGC level cellsize degrees decimal degree for the longitudal and latitudal length of the cell lon_center Longitude center of the cell lat_center Latitudal center of the cell area_km2 Calculated area for the cell geom Geometry Metadata -------- Geodata GCS_WGS_1984 Datum: D_WGS_1984 Prime Meridian: 0 Areas are calculated with different versions of Albers Equal Area Conic using the PostGIS function st_area. For the African continent I have used Africa Albers Equal Area Conic which will look like this: - st_area(st_transform(geom, 102022))/1000000) Licensing --------- Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Conditions ---------- Delivered to the user as-is.

SE Africa from SE Zambia, S Malawi, W Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and N Botswana to Swaziland and C & E South Africa, and isolated records from Uganda and Tanzania; there are also apparently records from Togo, Benin, C Nigeria, NE Egypt, and Lesotho, but they need validation and are not mapped here.

Distribution. Widespread in the C and W regions of S Africa, reaching to about 15° N in SW Angola. Occupies mainly arid and semi-arid areas, but also occurs in regions with higher precipitation and denser vegetation, such as the fynbos biome of South Africa's Western Cape Province. Cape Foxes have expanded their range over recent decades to the SW, where the species reaches the Atlantic and Indian Ocean coastlines. May occur in SW Swaziland, and possibly also in Lesotho. in Canidae
