“National Digital Topographic Data

Base (NDTDB)”

Implemented by DSMM in 1988 for rapid mapping

production via CAMS

NDTDB developed for 1:25,000 and 1:50,000

Based on Rectified Skew Orthomorphic (RSO)
Projection System

Homogeneous and using single origin in Kertau

Spatial entity registration based on coordinate.
“Digital Mapping Data from NDTDB”

Prepared in CAMS format

Data in Layer form

Map Scale 1:25,000
 Mapping Data Base
•Provided by CAMS Department, JUPEM.
•Containing 8 major layers: (for study area)
•Boundary
•Building
•Relief
•Transport
•Hydrograph
•Vegetation
•Utility
•Miscellanous

•Projection System: RSO projection

•Datum: Geodetic Datum
(ellipsoid Modified Everest)
•Overlaping layer by layer
c.) Overlay Tests in CAD format

i.) Parcel + Transport

 4(a) 4(b)

•Relative Accuracy : ± 15 – 40m

ii.) Parcel + Vegetation

iii.) Parcel + Hydrograph

Figure 6: Overlay Results

 5(a)

•Natural hydrographic element like river is more accurate from the

man-making element like canal (CAMS data).

•Relative accuracy : ± 15 – 45m.

iv.) Parcel + Boundary

Figure 7: Boundary data merged with cadastral data

iv.) Overlaping Cadastral parcel based data with others layer

•Building – building elements are too small (scale problem)

•Utility – There are only 6 objects in this layer for the whole CAMS
database in study area

•Relief – Containing contour layer
