This data set shows pan European administrative boundaries down to commune level version 2015. The Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) and the LAU nomenclature are hierarchical classifications of statistical regions that together subdivide the EU economic territory into regions of five different levels (NUTS 1, 2 and 3 and LAU , respectively, moving from larger to smaller territorial units). The LAU classification is not covered by any legislative act. The data set is based on EuroBoundaryMap v. 10 from Eurogeographics. Geographical extent covers the European Union, EFTA countries, and candidate countries The scale of the data set is 1:100 000. A generalised version is available to all from the GISCO download page. The data contains the National Statistical agency LAU code which can be joined to LAU lists aswell as a field GISCO_ID which is a unique identifier consisting of the Country code and LAU code.
Total resident population figures (31st December) have also been added based on the associated LAU lists Note the generalised version should be used for cartographic purposes and should be correctly attributed to @Eurogeographics.

You can customize the template to suit your needs. You can add and remove fields and fill out default information (e.g. contact details). Fields you can not change in the default view may be accessible in the more comprehensive (and more complex) advanced view. You can even use the XML editor to create custom structures, but they have to be validated by the system, so know what you do :-)

Data was derived from EBM 10 dataset. Generalised from the EBM LAU2 feature class using ArcGIS simplify tools. LAU2 regions for Greece may be incorrect due to variations betweem the Greek military and statistical agency. Population figures derive from the annual LAU lists. Member states do not in all cases provide a figure, in these cases the figure for the nearest available year is taken, the reference year for the population figure can be found in the field Year. Population density has also been calculated based on this figure and the area of the polygons in LAEA spatial reference (EPSG:3035) of the original 100K scale data. Population figures are not validated, figures received with the LAU lists are indicative and have analytical purposes such as implementing the DEGURBA.
