Postcode Boundary Maps (zip) – Administrative Area Maps – Small Area Maps (micro areas)

The updated layers were complemented by further levels as well as adapted to the most recent territorial status. New microgeographic levels were added to the worldwide offer for an even more detailed geomarketing-analysis.

Some examples: new micro areas are available for Ireland (Small Areas), Hong Kong (Constituency Areas), Philippines (Barangays), Thailand (Tambon), Taiwan (Villages) and Vietnam (Communes).

With the globalization, understanding the geographic details surrounding an area of where business takes place has become an increasingly critical component in strategic planning. Area Boundaries are often the basis for this task. They help you to display and analyze spatial areas on a map and can easily be matched and attributed with company internal data or Sociodemographic Data and Purchasing Power data from MB-International.
