This API provides a WFS (Web Feature Service) exposing the boundaries of Malta's local councils in polygon format, delineating the extent and area of each local council unit. It is published and maintained by the Planning Authority Malta and covers the national territory. The service can be queried through standard OGC WFS operations such as GetCapabilities and GetFeature, allowing integration into geographic information systems and mapping applications that require authoritative administrative boundary data for Maltese local councils.Local Councils Units defining local councils extend and area (polygon format)
