Data

The Washington State Geospatial Data Archive at the University of Washington has a collection of Russian Federation Digital Data that is available for download. Over the past year, we at The GeoCommunity have seen a number of requests for international, particularly Russian, data and have not had a reliable source of where such data can be accessed.

The data includes locations of 1858 rayons, 6 ethnic administrative rayons, and 441 gorsovets. The data map is Albers equal-area projection Clarke spheroid of1866.

attribute data includes:

  • resident total population in 1995.
  • resident urban population in 1995.
