A pluggable GeoDjango app with the boundaries of United States counties. Geography, loosely coupled.<br /><br />Features<br /><br /> * A ready-to-serve model with all the counties in the United States<br /> * Geometry fields for three of the most common SRIDs.<br /> * Simplified geometry fields that thin down the data and make it easier to display many polygons on a single map.<br /> * A read-only admin for reviewing the data<br /> * Templates that show how the counties can be displayed with common browser-based mapping libraries.<br /><br />Installation<br />01.
