According to this page [https://www.govmu.org/English/News/Pages/Mauritius-to-establish-its-National-Spatial-Data-Infrastructure.aspx] in Mauritius there should be a National Spatial Data Infrastructure. However, the indicated site https://gis.gov.mu is down, and I found no traces of data using the Wayback Machine. Thus, I have no way to check that this data actually exists.
