Abstract

This paper examines the mapping situation in Nigeria. There are many organisations that are involved in mapping activities in the country, these can be classified into the public and private sectors, with the Federal Survey Department as the apex mapping organization. Generally, the country is poorly mapped as exemplified by the range and quality of mapping products. This is attributed to poor funding, which is responsible for the current state of mapping personnel and equipment. A detailed evaluation of mapping and how to improve mapping in the country is discussed.
