This data comes from CD:NGI. It is either the same data or a lower resolution data from the shape files that we obtained from CD:NGI under the agreement OSM Foundation has with CD:NGI. I suggest that you rather use the shapefiles that we have and import those. In terms of the agreement all those imports need the tag "source=CD:NGI"
The tracing from aerial photograph needs the tag, but I cannot remember what tag we agreed on. Grant, was it: "source=aerialCDNGI"? We should put this information on the South Africa Wiki. The imports will have to be by small areas at a time, so as to make sure that we do not over write better data that we already have. Grant Slater asked for some help doing the import some time ago, but I am not sure how many takers there were, if any.
