Administrative units 2010 at country level (1:1M) including Kosovo (UNSCR 1244/99), Oct. 2012
This dataset adds the delineation of a Kosovo under United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244/99 feature to the administrative units at country level from 2010 dataset provided by GISCO.
The country identifier (cntr_id) for the Kosovo under United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244/99 feature is set to 'XK' and its associated object_id to 999.
Users should pay attention to the existence of another feature with cntr_id set to 'XK' in Africa (associated object_id: 245).
The Kosovo under United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244/99 feature has been delineated using the boundaries of the following communes extracted from the administrative units at commune level from 2010 provided by GISCO:
