This service provides SATELLITE IMAGERY-ADAPTED INTERACTIVE FEATURE LAYERs based on United Nations Geospatial WORLD SIMPLIFIED Datasets (UN Geodata Simplified), generalized based on UN Geodata 25 million scale and styled for OCHA IMOs to use in country, regional and world web maps.
***The UN Geodata simplified is prepared in the context of the Administrative Instruction on the “Guidelines for the Publication of Maps” and should serve global mapping purposes as opposed to local mapping. The scale is unspecific for the United Nations Geodata simplified and is suitable for generalized world maps and web-maps. ***These live feature services support: * Layer toggling and labeling, * Custom symbology, * Scale-dependent visibility, * Filtering (e.g., by ISO3 country codes), *Querying and data extraction, * Individual or group layer use in web maps and apps.
*** Unlike static vector tile basemaps, these layers enable real-time interaction and flexible map design. Ideal for applications requiring world, sub regional and regional reference data.
*** Included layers: *gbl_Lakes_25M_simplified *gbl_Administrative boundary lines_25M_simplified *gbl_SDGA_sub regions_25M_simplified, *gbl_Intermediary regions_25M_simplified, *gbl_Geographic sub regions_25M_simplified, *gbl_Geographic Region_25M_simplified, *gbl_Country polygons_25M_simplified
*** Best used at scales: 1:148 million (subcontinent), 1:296 million (continent), 1:592 million (world)
*** Edgematched OCHA COD feature services are compatible with UN Geodata -1M international boundaries. Do not combine OCHA COD datasets to this dataset. *****BEST USE CASE: Add this simplified global dataset to your web maps and tailor the symbology, scale ranges, and filters to match your operational context or thematic purpose. To use with other basemaps, simply set the Country Name layer’s fill symbol to transparent for label-only display.
*** For better performance in high-demand apps, a vector tile version is also available [insert link]. |
