Published by Region of Crete
This API provides a polygon layer showing the administrative boundary of the Region, sourced from the Hellenic Statistical Authority (ELSTAT). The boundaries are purely census-based, compiled for statistical purposes, and are not intended to serve as legal proof of administrative borders. The dataset is published via the Region of Crete's GeoServer WMS service, offering national-level geographic data for Greece, and is freely accessible without authentication for use in mapping and spatial analysis applications.Πολυγωνικό επίπεδο με τα όρια της Περιφέρειας. Τα όρια είναι καθαρά απογραφικά, έχουν συνταχθεί για τις ανάγκες της ΕΛΣΤΑΤ και δε διατίθενται ως αποδεικτικά διοικητικών ορίων.
