Outlines of the EPCI 2015

Geographical contours of the EPCI resulting from the crossing of the communal boundaries of OpenStreetMap and data from the General Directorate of Local Authorities dating from 2015. These data are partly from the crowdsourcing carried out by the contributors to the OpenStreetMap project and are therefore under ODbL license which imposes an identical sharing and the mandatory attribution mention must be "**© the contributors of OpenStreetMap under ODbL license**" in accordance with [http://osm.org/copyright](http://osm.org/copyright) ##Description of the contents of the "epci" files ###Origin of data The data come from the Directorate General of Local Authorities (DGCL) crossed with the municipal division from the OpenStreetMap map database.
