  • This dataset represents the administrative regions of Cameroon. Boundaries of territorial areas gathering several administrative divisions, placed under the authority of Governors. The dataset was originally produced by the Institut National de Cartographie (INC) and the descriptions are made on the basis of topographic maps (INC background) at a scale of 1:200 000. This layer represents a global view of the regions and does not correspond to official boundaries. There is no legal validation process for this data. The dataset was edited by FAO-CSI for topology/geometry validation, schema and coding system conformance to SALB-UN specifications. International borders were updated/validated against the official/recognized borders from the United Nations Geospatial Information Section.

    The Administrative boundaries at the level 1 dataset are part of the Global Administrative Areas (GADM) 3.6 vector dataset series which includes distinct datasets representing administrative boundaries for all countries in the world. The Administrative level 1 distinguishes States, Provinces and equivalent. GADM makes use of high spatial resolution images, and an extensive set of attributes to map administrative areas at all levels of political sub-division. Information on administrative units associated attributes includes official names in Latin and non-Latin scripts, variant names, administrative type in local and English. Please read the GADM 3.6 - Global Administrative Areas dataset series metadata for more information.
