World Bank-approved boundaries (and polygons) including international boundaries, disputed areas, coastlines, lakes and a guide to help with their usage. Corresponding admin 1 and 2 level boundaries are only available internally to World Bank staff. Boundaries are available as an ESRI GeoDatabase, in GeoJSON, a shapefile and API endpoints for interactive maps. If Bank staff use this data to create a map (print, web, or presentations for external audience e.g. external web sites, on mission), staff must receive clearance for the map by submitting the created map to the World Bank Cartography Unit (please refer to contact email below).
