Administrative Boundaries

Hierarchical Polygon Boundaries for Countries, States, Cities, and More

Aeroview’s Administrative Boundary datasets define the official spatial extents of government-recognized jurisdictions — from national borders and provinces to cities, towns, villages, and neighborhoods. These polygons form the foundational layer for any geographic information system (GIS), enabling meaningful spatial analysis, reporting, and location-based decision-making.

Whether you need a map of federal electoral districts, municipal service zones, or neighborhood planning areas, our datasets deliver clean, reliable, and ready-to-use polygons — sourced from official and verified datasets globally.

What Is It

Why Administrative Boundaries Matter

Administrative boundaries are essential for structuring spatial data and understanding geography through a political or legal lens. By organizing data within known jurisdictional limits, organizations can:

  • Align business activities with government-regulated zones
  • Support public service delivery, policy enforcement, and resource allocation
  • Enable statistical reporting, market analysis, and community-level planning

Common International Terms

Depending on the region or country, administrative boundaries may also be referred to as:

  • Political Boundaries
  • Jurisdictional Boundaries
  • Government Districts / Zones
  • Comune / Landkreis / Département / Mandal / Ward / Sub-county
  • Regency / Municipality / Prefecture

We structure and label administrative levels using standardized international codes (e.g., ISO 3166-2), and our metadata provides clear definitions of each boundary tier.
