Following new features are introduced in this release:
New supra-municipal layers:
Three new supra-municipal layers have been added to the data pack:
- Territorial collectivity with departmental competences (CTCD_FRA)
- City Attraction Area (AAV_FRA)
- A layer with a single geographic object that represents the boundaries of the France (France_FRA).
The attributes of these layers (AAV, CTCD, CTCD_LIB) are also included in the Communes_TAGC_FRA base layer.
Addition of formats to the deliverables:
- An SQL dump for PostGIS has been added, which allows you to load all the data via a single command in a postgres database environment with PostGIS extension. For more information about installing the FRANCIEMES for PostGIS, refer the file Installer_VersionSQL_PourPOSTGIS.txt in the DOCUMENTATION folder.
- A SAS (non-geographical) format has been added for the use of statistical processing on the Table d'Appartenance Géographique des Communes (TAGC).
All data complies with the Official Geographical Code 2024
