Abstract
This point shapefile represents railroad stations in Burkina Faso. The Global Map Burkina Faso version 2 was developed based on Global Map Specifications version 2.1. The data source was a 1:200,000 paper map made in 1960, which was converted to digital format and updated in 2000 and 2009.
Purpose
Global Map data were developed under the cooperation of National Geospatial Information Authorities (NGIAs) of respective countries and regions.
Supplemental Information
Global Map data of National/Regional version were developed with consistent specifications by NGIAs of respective countries and regions for fundamental geospatial information of their respective coverage by using geospatial information owned by them, and they were provided. The data have been authorized by NGIAs of respective countries and regions. Therefore, the contents of respective data are based on the views of respective data developers. For some countries and regions, there may be parts where data have not been developed. National/Regional version of Global Map data was to be updated in about five-year cycle on the basis of resolutions of an ISCGM meeting. To know about the year data were updated and about data developers, please refer to metadata attached to each data. Depending on the period the data were prepared, they were developed in line with two different specifications, namely, version 1 in VPF and BIL formats, and version 2 in GML and BIL formats.
