Pakistan Union Councils

We would like to have all the Locations hierarchy for Pakistan populated in the Sahana database (although it would also be available for OpenStreetMap & Ushahidi). This will allow easy un-duplicated data-entry for field users & also allow us to proper Reporting.

We already have Levels 1-3 of the hierarchy (Provinces, Districts & Tehsils). What we're missing are the Union Councils (L4):

Instructions

  1. Open the spreadsheet for:
  1. Choose a District and search for the Union Councils within the Tehsils (the best source of data for this is the Pakistan government source at the bottom of the page - although there's no front-end to the data I know of, so need to open up pages mostly 'blind').
  2. Enter each Union Council in a new row in the spreadsheet, which includes correct Tehsil (or District if that's all that is available)
  3. Add the lat and lon, if available, and the Source (geonames_id &/or Wikipedia URL)
  4. Putting any villages which you know are in a specific Union Council would be even better.
  • We have many villages in Punjab which just need Lat/Lons, looking those up in Geonames (& cross-checking the hierarchy using spatial checks would be ideal)
