Innovation with the Release 2022: City Points

For our worldwide Release 2022, "City Points" are included as a standard addition in our MB-Research Digital Boundaries packages. City Points provide valuable information on the geographic location and size of cities over 50,000 inhabitants.

Add-On: Additional Names

Each package of MB-Research Digital Boundaries contains "Additional Names" as an Excel spreadsheet. These tables contain country-specific information on the names and languages available in each country, as well as their language and writing systems.

The "Additional Names" can be used for various applications, for example, names in the country-specific writing system as support for query and analysis processes.
A uniform column structure of the ("Additional Names") tables also facilitates the cross-country interaction of language information.
