Description:
Limites du troisième niveau d’entités administratives de la RDC : territoires (ruraux) et communes (urbaines).

Le fichier est issu de la digitalisation par UNOCHA de l’atlas de l’organisation administrative de la RDC réalisé par le père Léon de Saint Moulin. Lorsque les limites de territoires sont définies par un cours d’eau, la géométrie a été partagée. Une validation topologique a été effectuée par UNDP et les limites de communes de Kinshasa ont été ajoutées. L’ensemble des communes de 19 autres villes sont détourées au moyen d’un seul polygone. La toponymie a été validée par l’INS.

Boundaries of the third level administrative units of the Democratic Republic of Congo: the rural territories and urban communities.

These data were digitized by UNOCHA from the atlas of the administrative organizations of the Democratic Republic of Congo by father Leon de Saint Moulin. The territory boundaries are defined by waterways, geometry and subdividions. A topological validation was done by UNDP and the community boundaries of Kinshasa were added. The collection of communities and of 19 other cities were cut into the middle of a single polygon. The toponomy was validated by the INS.
