Other side of the Line of Control

[Peter Mayer]

Hi,

I've been using Devadatta's shape file for 2011 (https://github.com/devdattaT Thanks Devadatta!!) with Census data. When I submitted a paper with some of these maps, I was chastised by one reviewer because I didn't show the official national borders. It's easy to put in missing data...but is there a shape file I've missed for 'the other side' of the Line of Control?

best wishes,

Peter

Hi Peter,

If you need the official boundaries, then you can use the Survey of India's Country/State Boundary from here: https://github.com/datameet/maps/tree/master/Survey-of-India-Index-Maps

(As an Aside, if you are currently using the 2011 District boundaries, you should not face a problem, because those contain a polygon for POK.)

Regards,

Devdatta

Thanks Devdatta,

I think I'm missing something...! I'm using _State_ polygons and don't see a POK polygon--which is just what I need. I'll see how I go with the SoI link.
