# Nepal Municipalities Map
The new clean geojson data is created by combining geojson-data from
[mofald](http://103.69.124.141/) and
[localboundries.oknp.org](http://localboundries.oknp.org/) as there were
certain municipalites missing in one source while present in another and
vice-versa. Each geojson feature contains the following properties.
`wards` is count of wards in that particular municipality.``` json
{
"type": "Feature",
"properties": {
"locallevel_fullcode": 55801,
"province": 5,
"district_code": 58,
"district": "Bardiya",
"locallevel_code": 1,
"locallevel_name": "Badhaiyatal",
"locallevel_name_nepali": "बढैयाताल गाउँपालिका",
"locallevel_type": "Gaunpalika",
"wards": 9.0
}
}
```There are 2 geojson files - high resolution
[municipalites.high.geojson](out/municipalities.high.geojson) \[44.71
MB\] and simplified
[municipalities.simplified.geojson](out/municipalities.simplified.geojson)
\[3.46 MB\]. Use the one appropriate for you.You may use the [municapalities.csv](out/municapalities.csv) for names
and codes only if you don’t need coordinates data.## Inside Geojson
There are 775 entries (instead of 753) in
[geojson](out/municipalities.simplified.geojson) and
[csv](out/municapalities.csv) file. That’s because there are other areas
besides municipalities.| Type | Count |
| :----------------------------- | ----: |
| Development Area | 1 |
| Gaunpalika | 461 |
| Hunting Reserve | 3 |
| Mahanagarpalika | 6 |
| Nagarpalika | 276 |
| National Park | 11 |
| Upamahanagarpalika | 11 |
| Watershed and Wildlife Reserve | 1 |
| Wildlife Reserve | 5 |
| Total | 775 |However if you count the number of palikas (municipalites) in geojson,
you will see that there’s 754 instead of 753.| Locallevel Type | Count |
| :----------------- | ----: |
| Gaunpalika | 461 |
| Mahanagarpalika | 6 |
| Nagarpalika | 276 |
| Upamahanagarpalika | 11 |
| Total | 754 |Don’t worry. The extra municipality is due to “Bansagadhi” - a
municipality of Badriya which has 2 polygon regions as shown below.![](readme_files/figure-gfm/unnamed-chunk-3-1.png)
