Organizing boundaries and admin_level tags for Algeria OSM Map.

Hi,

I’m proceeding to put all administrative boundaries of the wilaya of Bejaia to admin_level=8.

I think that we have to adpot something like this :

admin_level=2 : National borders
admin_level=3 : ############### Reserved
admin_level=4 : Wilaya boundary
admin level=5 : ############### Reserved
admin_level=6 : Daira boundary
admin_level=7 : ############### Reserved
admin_level=8 : Commune boundary
admin_level=9 : ############### Reserved
admin_level=10 : Quartiers

Dont ask me why some admin_levels are “reserved”, you will discover this by yourself. For instance, in 2015 Algeria voted a new law to create a “beta version of new wilayas” so, if the boundaries of the old wilayas are “admin_level=4”, then the 15 new “Wilaya déléguées” could fit in the reserved “admin_level=5” until these new wilayas become autonomous and have the same role as the old known wilayas, then their boundaries could be pushed from “admin_level=5” to the natural “admin_level=4”. Anyway, that’s only my point of view.

Seriously, am I talking alone ? :smiley:

So, back to my subject : Here’s the admin_level=8 of the communes of Bejaia until now 17 september 2015 - 11h22 (50% work left :slight_smile: )

Salut.
