# Third-party data & attributions

TREK bundles and uses third-party data that requires attribution.

## geoBoundaries — country & sub-national boundaries

The Atlas map's administrative boundaries (admin-0 countries and admin-1
provinces/counties), shipped at `server/assets/atlas/admin0.geojson.gz` and
`server/assets/atlas/admin1.geojson.gz` and generated by
`server/scripts/build-atlas-geo.mjs`, are derived from **geoBoundaries**.

The bundled files are simplified (coordinate-quantized) and re-tagged with the
property names TREK consumes. Country borders (`admin0`) derive from the geoBoundaries
CGAZ composite; sub-national regions (`admin1`) derive from the per-country open
(gbOpen) release.
