Grid definition data including ESRI shapefiles
Parties are invited to download data defining the new grid cells and fractions of grid cells (as text and Excel file) from the table below. Country specific ESRI shapefiles with the new 0.1°x0.1° (long-lat) grid definition can be downloaded as well. Please scroll down to the bottom of the page for ESRI shape files of "other areas".

The shapefile format is a popular geospatial vector data format for Geographic Information System (GIS) software. It is developed and regulated by Esri as a (mostly) open specification for data interoperability among Esri and other GIS software products. The shapefile format can spatially describe vector features (points, lines, and polygons), representing for example large point sources, streets, lakes, or in this case grid cells. Each item usually has attributes that describe it. In the shapefiles for the grid definition each cell has attributes about where it is located (long and lat), the cell fraction and the country/area name.
The cell fraction attribute defines how much of the cell area is located within the corresponding country/area. A cell fraction of "1" means that the whole cell is located within the corresponding country/area. A cell fraction < 1 defines the share of the grid cell area which is located within the corresponding country/area (border cells).
