Cameroon Departments 2011
Ces données présentent les limites administratives à l'échelle des départements au Cameroun. Elles ont été obtenues auprès de l'Institut National de la Cartographie (INC) à la suite du passage des provinces aux régions et de la création de nouveaux départements. Ce nouveau découpage est intégré dans l'Atlas Version 3.0 et permettrait ainsi de résoudre les conflits relatifs au partage de la redevance forestière émanant des limites territoriales confuses entre les départements.

Unit harmonisation applied to this dataset
Every number in Atlas is stored in one canonical unit; the original value and unit are always kept
| Source field | Measure | Source unit | Atlas unit | Factor | Treatment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shape_Leng | area/length | unknown (often degrees) | — | — | excluded unit not stated; geodesic area/length computed from geometry instead |
| Shape_Length | area/length | unknown (often degrees) | — | — | excluded unit not stated; geodesic area/length computed from geometry instead |
| Shape_Area | area/length | unknown (often degrees) | — | — | excluded unit not stated; geodesic area/length computed from geometry instead |
| geometry | area / length | EPSG:4326 degrees | ha / m | — | geodesic area (ha), perimeter (m) and length (km) computed on the WGS 84 ellipsoid with PostGIS |
