CollectionIt should be noted that source data results in rounded geographic coordinates that create a grid-based distribution pattern. Some features such as islands (ISL), rocks (RK), reefs (RF), and others cannot be attributed to the administrative bounds and were labeled with a 999999.Consistent naming conventions for geographic locations were attempted, but name variants may exist which can include historical or less widespread interpretations.The data included herein have not been derived from a registered survey and should be considered approximate unless otherwise defined. While rigorous steps have been taken to ensure the quality of each dataset, DigitalGlobe is not responsible for the accuracy and completeness of data compiled from outside sources.Sources (HGIS)GeoNames, "Liberia."
