Municipal Neighbourhoods - City of Athens
This dataset provides polygon geometries delineating the official municipal neighbourhoods (geitonies) within the Municipality of Athens, Greece. It is published via the municipality's GIS/WMS service and can be used to identify neighbourhood boundaries for mapping, spatial analysis, or integration with other geographic datasets referencing the city's administrative subdivisions. The data is accessible through a standard WMS interface, allowing it to be layered alongside other geospatial datasets in GIS software or web mapping applications without requiring authentication.Polygons describing Municipal Neighbourhoods within the Municipality of Athens
