About this dataset
Postal Codes Dataset for Faroe Islands (FO)
This dataset lists the postal codes of Faroe Islands with place names, WGS84 coordinates and alternative city names.
Column definitions, row count, size and last-updated date are in datapackage.yaml.
Data Sources
- Postal codes, place names, administrative divisions and coordinates: © GeoNames, postal code export for Faroe Islands, CC BY 4.0.
- Alternative city names: the GeoNames gazetteer for Faroe Islands, same licence.
Changes made to the source data: place names cleaned (a parenthesised part is dropped, punctuation becomes a space and repeated spaces collapse), and an alternative city name added from the gazetteer where one matches the place name.
Not endorsed by, or affiliated with, GeoNames.
Known limitations
- No administrative divisions: the source carries none for Faroe Islands, so
admin_name1–admin_name3andadmin_code1–admin_code3are empty.
Usage
The dataset files are available in CSV format and can be accessed and downloaded using
the links provided in datapackage.yaml.
