Frequently Asked Questions

What file formats are included in my download?

Your download includes the administrative boundaries in both ESRI Shapefile (.shp) and GeoPackage (.gpkg) formats. If you need the data in alternative formats (such as GeoJSON, Excel, or PostgreSQL import files), please contact us at [email protected].

What coordinate reference system (projection) is used?

All boundary files are delivered in the standard WGS 84 (EPSG:4326) geographic coordinate system.

What software can I use to open these files?

The datasets are provided in standard geospatial formats and are fully compatible with all major GIS platforms, including QGIS, ArcGIS, MapInfo, as well as business intelligence tools like Tableau, Power BI, and spatial databases like PostGIS.

Where is the boundary geometry sourced from?

Our high-precision polygon boundaries are derived from reliable OpenStreetMap (OSM) data, ensuring they are accurate, up-to-date, and suitable for geospatial mapping and territorial analysis.

Does this dataset include demographic data?

No, this specific boundary layer focuses strictly on providing high-precision geographic polygons for mapping and spatial joins, and does not include integrated demographic data. For demographic insights, please check out our detailed Geodemographics Datasets linked in the related resources above.

Can I upgrade to the full country hierarchy later?

Absolutely! If you realize you need seamless drill-downs to other administrative levels, you can explore our All-in-One Administrative Boundaries package for Latvia, which contains the complete hierarchy.

Need the data in another format?

We can deliver this dataset in alternative formats upon request (GeoJSON, Shapefile, Excel, PostgreSQL import files, etc.). Contact us at [email protected].
