Country Levels

Country Levels project contains full planet GeoJSON extracts, based on ISO and FIPS codes.

International data is based on OpenStreetMap and Wikidata. US data is from on US Census Bureau.

Both include up-to-date population numbers.

ISO country code list

ISO1 is referring to ISO 3166-1 country codes, for example ES for Spain.

ISO2 is referring to ISO 3166-2 country codes, for example ES-CL for Castilla y León, Spain.

GeoJSON files are served in different quality levels, q5 refers to smallest, q7 to medium and q8 to higher quality extracts.

You can download the full planet dataset in ZIP in the releases tab.

GeoJSON files and JSON catalogs are also browsable in the export repo.

• Castilla y León is iso2:ES-CL
• Santa Clara County, CA is fips:06085

Development

If you would like to develop or contribute, you'll need Python 3.7+ and Node with yarn.

Note: this process will start a slow and delayed download from the OSM Admin map. It will take many hours, to make sure we are not overloading the server.

Steps:

1. Get a CLI key from OSM Admin Boundaries Map and replace __CLI__KEY__ in country_levels_lib/wam_download.py.

2. run source prepare_virtualenv.sh

3. run ./process_all.sh

If you have direnv installed, the virtualenv will activate/deactivate automatically upon entering/exiting this project.
