Values of -999 are assigned when the polygon was Admin-1 level.UNIQUE_LOCATION: A unique identifier created for all locations (both points and polygons) based upon the unique point locations (in same 5km x 5km pixels) and the GAUL codes.X: The longitudinal coordinate of the point or polygon centroid (WGS1984 Datum).Y: The latitudinal coordinate of the point or polygon centroid (WGS1984 Datum).YEAR: The year of the occurrence. 10.
