Comprehensive Global Administrative Zones - ADM0 Countries
This dataset contains global administrative boundaries of over 200 countries and territories at the country level (ADM0). Boundary information is sourced from within-country authorities whenever possible, with other information sources including public archives, digitised map documents, and community contributors.
Frameworks
Use cases
- Jurisdictional aggregation for regulatory reporting
- Spatial join with other datasets for country/district-level analysis
- EUDR operator due diligence — country and subnational boundary reference
- Data pipeline normalisation for multi-country spatial workflows
Who uses this
Geospatial data engineers and sustainability reporting teams use the ADM0 boundary layer as the foundational reference for country-level spatial joins across all other Cecil datasets. EUDR compliance platforms use it to map operator-uploaded sourcing polygons against country boundaries for jurisdictional risk classification. Regulatory reporting teams use it as the authoritative geometry source for normalising multi-country datasets into consistent, comparable outputs.
