One of the examples in the package
A layered SVG coloured from a table with a few lines of plain JavaScript: every entity is a path whose id is its official code. The page shows a part of the country: the two levels share the same borders, so they fit without gaps. The package has every entity of every level.
South Moravian Region: the municipalities of the district of Brno-Country, coloured by area, among the other districts.
What is in the package
Levels and identifiers
| Level | Entities | Identifier |
|---|---|---|
| country | 1 | CZ |
| regions | 14 | CZ-R-<official code> |
| districts | 77 | CZ-P-<official code> |
| municipalities | 6,258 | CZ-M-<official code> |
Every entity has the same identifier in every file: it is the feature id in GeoJSON and TopoJSON, the id of the path in SVG and the id column of the tables.
Formats and scales
| Format | full | 100m | 1km | 10km | light |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GeoJSON | 122.2 MB | 9.8 MB | 2.7 MB | 40 KB | 828 KB |
| TopoJSON | 21.4 MB | 3.5 MB | 2.0 MB | 27 KB | 353 KB |
| Shapefile | 99.1 MB | 7.8 MB | 2.1 MB | 30 KB | 668 KB |
| SVG | - | 10.1 MB | 2.5 MB | 39 KB | 875 KB |
full: the boundaries as published by the source.100m: simplified within 100 m and coherent: municipalities, districts and regions share exactly the same border vertices.1km: simplified within 1 km and coherent like100m, every level: the whole country on a web map.10km: simplified within 10 km and coherent, country, regions and districts only: small maps and maps of many countries.- At the borders with the neighbouring countries (Austria, Germany, Poland and Slovakia) the
100m,1kmand10kmboundaries share the same vertices as in their packages, so the maps fit without gaps or overlaps. light: country, regions and districts only, each level simplified on its own to a small file.- GeoJSON: one FeatureCollection per level, WGS84. TopoJSON: all the levels in one topology, shared borders are shared arcs.
- GeoPackage:
data/geopackage/cz.gpkg(120.6 MB), one file for QGIS and ArcGIS with every level at every scale as a layer (municipalities_100m) with its spatial index, and every table of the package. - Shapefile: one per level and scale, WGS84, UTF-8; the columns longer than ten characters are shortened (
region,province,abbrev). - SVG: one file per level and one with every level as a layer, in a Lambert conformal conic projection; they open as layers in Illustrator, Figma and Inkscape.
- SQL: a script for PostGIS, one for MySQL 8 and one for SQL Server (9.9 MB each). It creates one table with every entity of every level, its
100mboundary in WGS84 and its indexes. - JSON:
data/json/tree.json(497 KB), the levels nested and sorted by name, without boundaries: what the select boxes of a form need.

id, level, code, wikidata, iso_3166_2, geonames, osm_relation
|
tables/names.csv |
7,413 |

|
tables/changes.csv |
0 |
What changed from one edition of the package to the next, one row per entity added, removed, renamed, moved or with a new boundary: the same as CHANGELOG.md.
