Abstract
The GISCO statistical unit dataset represents the NUTS (nomenclature of territorial units for statistics) and statistical regions by means of multipart polygon, polyline and point topology. The NUTS geographical information is completed by attribute tables and a set of cartographic help lines to better visualise multipart polygonal regions. The NUTS are a hierarchical system divided into 3 levels: NUTS 1: major socio-economic regions NUTS 2: basic regions for the application of regional policies NUTS 3: small regions for specific diagnoses. Also, there is a NUTS 0 level, which usually corresponds to the national boundaries. The NUTS legislation is amended periodically. Therefore, multiple years are available for download. For more information, see our webpage on the NUTS regulations. Access to the datasets is also provided via the GISCO data distribution API, which includes data on different projections. In addition, geometries for single countries, regions and NUTS-units can be downloaded as separate files.
