Abstract: Chiwog boundaries divide the block, Gewog, into several groups of villages for administration. The Chiwog boundaries were delineated during the local government election in 2010,This dataset is unverified and intended for internal reference only. Users are strongly advised to exercise caution and should not rely on this data for legal. administrative, or official purposes. The source-based data is used from the National Statistics Bureau (NSB), topology are cleaned and aligned based on Dzongkhag and Gewog boundaries. The authorities Ownership belongs to the Department of Local Governance (DLG).
Purpose: Chiwog boundaries divide the block, Gewog, into several groups of villages for administration. The Chiwog boundaries were delineated during the local government election in 2010.For segregation of villages for administrative purposes

Resource constraints:
General Constraints:
Limitations of use: The dataset can be used in an unaltered form (altered including being delete, update, stretched, or altered in any way to distort data from its original proportions or format) with copyright-acknowledged, temporarily for personal study that is not for direct or indirect commercial use. The common topology errors, such as gaps, overlaps, and sliver polygons of the Chiwog boundaries, have been cleaned and aligned with the corresponding Gewog boundaries to meet the requirements of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) portal and for internal purposes. As a result, there are changes in both the area and boundaries of the Chiwogs during the NSDI data cleaning workshop. Users are advised to exercise caution when using this data for any legal, administrative, or official purposes.
