Description

World Countries provides a detailed basemap layer for the country boundaries of the world as they existed in January 2024. 

It has been designed to be used as a basemap and includes fields for local and official names and country codes, along with fields for capital, continent, and display. Particularly useful are the fields LAND_TYPE and LAND_RANK that separate polygons based on their size. These fields are helpful for rendering at different scales by providing the ability to turn off small islands that may clutter small-scale views.

The data is sourced from Garmin International, Inc. and was published here in October 2024.  This layer is updated every 12-18 months or as significant changes occur.

An in-depth description of the item is not available.

A large portion of the Philippines covering the capital city and its surroundings is missing from the dataset.
