Dataset description

A block is usually limited from all sides by roads. In some cases, the demarcation is defined by zone plan categories (railways, forest, green zone, agricultural zone, etc.). Statistical numbering: The numbering of the blocks consists of the two-digit residential district number, the single-digit district number and the three-digit block number (in each label separated by points): — Blocks have no name and are only referenced by the number. — Example block around the Clara Church: BLO_ID 121014, the name (BLO_Label) is 12.1.014
