RRG GIS DatabaseRegion boundaries, admninistrative boundaries - INTERREG IIIB (2000-2006) Cooperation AreasGeneral information There are ten polygon layers available representing the ten different INTERREG IIIB (2000-2006) cooperation areas, i.e. there is one layer available per cooperation area. Each layer covers only those NUTS regions that constitute the specific cooperation area; however, the boundaries of the NUTS regions correspond to the boundaries provided with the individual NUTS layers. The following cooperation areas are available (the name of the layer is given in brackets):
Each layer includes arc and polygon feature classes, whose attributes basically are identical with the attributes provided with the NUTS-3 region layer. Layer names: COPNP, COPNS, COPBS, COPNWE, COPAA, COPCAD, COPSWE, COPWM, COPAS, COPARC Feature classes: Arcs, polygons (*.AAT, *.PAT) No of arc features: No of polygon features: User attributes associated with AAT: 1 User attributes associated with PAT: 6 Detailed description of the arc attribute table The AATs of the cooperation area coverages contain only one user-defined attribute. The classification of the BOUNDARY attribute can be used to select and draw different types of boundaries, if required. Since the NUTS system is a hierarchical system, all higher level boundaries represent at the same time also a lower level boundary. For example, a country boundary is at the same time always a NUTS-1 region boundary, and all NUTS-1 region boundaries are at the same time NUTS-2 region boundaries, so as NUTS-2 region boundaries represent NUTS-3 region boundaries as well.
Detailed description of the polygon attribute table The PATs of the cooperation area coverages contain the following user-defined attributes:
The attributes COUNTRY, NUTS1_CODE, NUTS2_CODE and NUTS3_CODE represent the official ISO codes as defined and used by Eurostat for the respective NUTS levels. These codes can be used both to join statistical data to the layer and to aggregate NUTS-3 regions to higher levels. NUTS3_NAME gives the official NUTS-3 region name, whereas NUTS3TOTAREA represents the total NUTS-3 region area. This attribute should not be confused with the ArcInfo internal area attribute, which represents the area of the individual polygon in question. In contrast, NUTS3TOTAREA represents the total region area, i.e. if the region consists of several polygons the areas of all polygons are summed up in this attribute.
