Hi, Bruce:

I've dabbled in ArcMap and found that by Google searching for a
particular subject often has helped me.  Googling Ghana shapefiles has
brought up DIVA-GIS as well as many others.  I would certainly start there.

We have a graduate student who is looking for high resolution imagery of
the  Ashanti Region in Ghana. Any other base mapping layers, including
streets, roads and buildings of that area would also be helpful.  Any
information on how to get our hands on the imagery would be most helpful.

Please respond directly to me at [log in to unmask]
