Term | Explanation |
|---|---|
Administrative level | CODs (and administrative structures) are hierarchical with administrative levels numbered from zero (the entire country or territory) down as far as appropriate. Because the names of administrative levels vary so much between countries and territories, and because a particular country and administrative level may contain features of more than one administrative type, the generic term ‘administrative level’ is preferred in COD management. Administrative levels may be abbreviated ADM1 etc. |
Administrative structure | The heart of any COD is its adherence to and echoing of the accepted administrative structure of the country or territory. The administrative structure of a country or territory consists of the administrative features comprising each administrative level. |
