VMap0 data are relatively new vector dataset which represents a next version of widely used Digital Chart of the World (DCW) dataset (more about VMap0 - rus).
Global VMap0 dataset is distributed in original VPF format and available through National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency website. This page allows to download exact replica of VMap0 in ESRI shape format. The dataset is in public domain with the exception of Boundaries Coverage and the Reference Library layers that are copyrighted by ESRI (allowed use limitations are unknown, so the layers are still published here as in source VPFs).
Data are packed with free 7z compressor.
All the data are in Latitude/Longitude, WGS84 coordinate system.
You can also get PRJ files here.
Global data
Global data are separated into 4 parts and available to download from this website in ESRI Shapefile format (see figure, zones boundaries, shapefile):
Data in SQL format ready for uploading into PostGIS/PostgreSQL
Data is converted using the following routine :
for f in *shp do #remove extension and substitute "-" for "_" name=$(basename $f .shp| tr "-" "_") #convert file $f from shp to sql commands shp2pgsql -d -I -s 4326 $f $name> ./sql/$name".sql" done
Data for the territory of Russia
Data for the territory of Russia in ESRI Shapefile format is available here.
Data are imported from VPF, clipped with Russia's boundart from the same dataset and merged together from the Eur, Noa and Sas parts, each layer has accompanying legend as an avl-file.
