This case study explores the use of geographic information systems (GIS) in the process of development, land reparation, and restitution on the Cato Manor Development Project in Durban, South Africa in the year 2000. The author employed interviews with stakeholders, participant observation, and archival information analysis to document the process by which former residents, removed from the area during the Apartheid era, challenged the intervention of the development agency.

According to this paper, the use of geographic information systems (GIS) in the fight against accelerated process of land degradation offers opportunities to optimise the use of resources to rejuvenate the land. However, there are concerns about how development initiatives relying on advanced technological systems can effectively respond to local needs. This paper addresses the issue through a 2002 case study of the planning and implementation of a GIS-based intervention for land and water recuperation.
