Title
Maldives - Subnational Administrative Boundaries
Description
Maldives administrative level 0-2 boundaries (COD-AB) dataset. These administrative boundaries were established in: 2024 NOTE: These layers have a special polygon structure. Administrative level 2 is actual islands, but level 1 (and level 0) is the surrounding administrative atolls or island groups (which in a few cases differ from distinct geographic atolls). Feature areas (AREA_SQKM) totals are therefore much larger for administrative level 1 (and 0). This COD-AB contains an extra """"Atoll Lines' layer that shows the island and atoll groupings. The administrative level 2 P-codes are derived from an earlier ('FCODE') system where available, and then completed alphabetically by name in other cases. This COD-AB was most recently reviewed for accuracy and necessary changes in October 2024. The COD-AB does not require any update. Sourced from Government of the republic of Maldives Vetting by Information Technology Outreach Services (ITOS) with funding from USAID. This COD-AB is suitable for database or GIS linkage to the Maldives [COD-PS](https://data.humdata.org/dataset/cod-ps-mdv). As this is an island country, no edge-matched (COD-EM) version of this COD-AB is required. Please see the [COD Portal](https://cod.unocha.org/). Administrative level 1 contains 21 feature(s). The normal administrative level 1 feature type is ""currently not known"". Administrative level 2 contains 1,556 feature(s). The normal administrative level 2 feature type is ""currently not known"".
