Population entities: contours

Cartographic delimitation of the contours that make up the population entities of Castilla y León. Cartography with surface geometry made from photointerpretation. Two types of entities are distinguished: — ‘INE population centre’: Population centres included in the INE Padron. In general they are sets of at least ten buildings, which are forming streets, squares and other urban roads. More info on: https://www.ine.es/nomen2/Metodologia.do — ‘JCYL settlement’: Settlements of population not considered as a population nucleus by the INE. The data of these settlements are collected solely for cartographic and toponymic purposes, without any legal or administrative consideration. In general, they will be settlements that the INE considers to be included in the category of unidentified spreads. This surface geometry layer is harmonised with the point geometry layer of “CyL Population Entities”. IMPORTANT NOTE: The delimitations of “CyL population entities. Contornos”, are not based on the urban classification. For the consultation of urban land, buildable and rustic, you can consult the Urban Information System of Castilla y León (SiuCyL). https://jcyl.es/siucyl
