Map standards and boundary policy

The global map loads only the selected administrative-boundary layers. It does not load or display claim-line overlays, political notes, or related legends. This is a rendering choice; provenance and confidence fields remain available in the data files.

Country packages retain their source conventions and may not align exactly with global snapshots. When comparing or reproducing a view, record the version, year, administrative level, file path, and provenance fields. These data support research and do not determine legal boundary status.
