Map of French regions (new 2016 regions)

Description

As of January 1, 2016, some of the regions established in the 1960s merge to leave only 13. # Content Each department is delivered as a ZIP archive that contains several map layers at the fomat shapefile (the.doc of mapping): — places.shp: names of cities or neighborhoods — roads.shp: all paths from highway to pedestrian path — buildings.shp: built space — raillways.shp: railways — waterways.shp: the hydrolic network — points.shp: a list of points of interest — natural.shp: green areas — landuse.shp: land occupancy — admin-department.shp: the department In addition, a project file [QGis](http://www.qgis.org/fr/site/) is provided in the archive, in order to visualise the layer overlay in a free tool. # Origin The geofabrik site is well known for providing reference maps extracted from OpenStreetMap on the whole world, but it offers the old split, this data set is the up-to-date declination of the new regions! The data comes from the OpenStreetMap community and free cartographic database. The division by department comes from the ‘Contours of the French departments from OpenStreetMap’. Shapefiles are extracted according to the method exposed by Maxime Résibois’ excellent article on PortalSIG: http://www.portailsig.org/content/recuperer-des-donnees-openstreetmap-gdalogr The sources of automatic extraction processing are available on github. They rely on tuttle, a build system for data. # License This data comes from crowdsourcing carried out by the contributors to the OpenStreetMap project and is under ODbL license which requires an identical sharing and the mandatory attribution mention must be “© OpenStreetMap contributors under ODbL license” in accordance with http://osm.org/copyright # List of regions covered — Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes — Bourgogne-Franche-Comté — Brittany — Centre-Val de Loire — Corsica — Great East — Guadeloupe — Guyana — Up-de-France — Island of France — Martinique — Mayotte — Normandy — New-Aquitaine — Occitanie — Country of the Loire — Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur — The Reunion
