Madagascar

Madagascar administrative level 0 (country), 1 (region), 2 (district), 3 (commune), and 4 (fokontany) boundary and line shapefiles, geodatabase, and gazetteer. These boundary shapefiles are suitable for database or GIS linkage to the Madagascar - Subnational Population Statistics population statistics CSV tables. (A Look Up Table of P-codes and related BNGRC codes has also been provided, should linkages to the BNGRC Admin 1 & 2 codes be required for disaster response purposes.)

Settlement extents are polygons representing areas where there is likely a human settlement based on the presence of buildings detected in satellite imagery. Settlement extents are not meant to represent the boundaries of an administrative unit or locality. A single settlement extent may be made up of multiple localities, especially in urban areas. Each settlement extent has an associated population estimate. Provided is information on the common operational boundary that the extent fully resides within along with their associated place codes (PCodes). The data are in geodatabase format and consist of a single-feature class.
