The City of Cape Towns Urban Planning and Design Department has published a Spatial Trends and Implementation Tracking Report that provides readers with an overview of how development and land uses have changed in Cape Town from 2012 to 2022. This specific graphic entails the built footprint and demonstrates an increase of 3 451 hectares or 5% from 2012 to 2022 in human-made structures. The information in the report also helps the City to monitor the impact of its main spatial policies, such as the Municipal Spatial Development Framework and eight District Spatial Development Frameworks on managing urbanisation and development for a growing population.
