New Geo: Poland - Metro areas
Wednesday, 13 Sep 2017 08:42 ET
By Elizabeth Fitts
Summary
October 2011 -- We have defined four metropolitan areas in Poland (Kraków, Poznan, Warsaw, Wroclaw); with no official definition, we use NUTS 3 constituent areas.
Detail

Moody's Analytics estimates and forecasts data for four metropolitan areas in Poland. Poland itself has no official definition, and ESPON 1.4.3 defines FUAs but no metro areas. Consequently, we have elected to use Eurostat-defined NUTS 3 areas as proxies; with these four areas, the NUTS 3 definitions are equivalent to the city boundaries.

  • Kraków
  • Poznan
  • Warsaw
  • Wroclaw

Table 1 of 1. Metropolitan areas in Poland. Poland has a national geo code of IPOL, all codes for its geographic subdivisions use IPOL as a prefix, and all Moody's Analytics metro areas feature the letter "M." Each of the four areas is identified as IPOL(underscore)M(letter)(letter)(letter), and may be retrieved en masse by using the basket geo wild card IPOL_M^^^.
