With the promulgation of the Constitution of Nepal in 2015, the country restructured into a Federal Democratic Republic made up of 7 provinces and local levels categorized as rural municipality, municipality, metropolitan, and sub-metropolitan. The first local elections under this new structure were held in 2017.
LocalBoundaries brings the detailed geodata of these administrative units, plus Nepal's national parks and wildlife reserves, in an open and reusable format that's free to reuse in QGIS, ArcGIS, OpenStreetMap, Google Maps, Leaflet, or Mapbox.
