This layer was obtained by combined the countries layer with the lakes layer and simplifying geometries. In the course of the isimplifcation process some smaller areas (islands) were removed.

Country information example for Baltic Sea


Data Source

Adapted from Natural Earth countries' and lakes' layers (version 4.0.0).

Original Title

To create this layer, two layers were used: "Admin 0 – Countries" and "Lakes + Reservoirs"

Description

The countries' layer distinguishes between metropolitan (homeland) and independent and semi-independent portions of sovereign states. Each country is coded with a world region that roughly follows the United Nations setup.

The lakes' layer includes natural and artificial lakes.

Creation Date

15 October 2017

Methodology

The source countries' layer was combined with the source lakes layer and the geometries were simplified. In the course of the simplification process some smaller areas (islands and lakes) were removed.
