gv100ad
This software is experimental and might change a lot in future
This is a Rust implementation of a parser for GV100AD data sets. These data sets contain information about the structure, population, area of german municipalities.
The data sets can be obtained at: https://www.destatis.de/DE/Themen/Laender-Regionen/Regionales/Gemeindeverzeichnis/_inhalt.html
The parser was tested with this data set: https://www.destatis.de/DE/Themen/Laender-Regionen/Regionales/Gemeindeverzeichnis/Administrativ/Archiv/GV100ADQ/GV100AD3004.html
The ZIP files contain a text file GV100AD_DDMMYY.txt
that contains the
data set, and a PDF file describing the format.
Example
This example lists all municipalities of the state Saarland with population:
use ;
// Open the database. Refer to the `README.md` file for the source of the datasets.
let db = from_path.unwrap;
// Parse a key for the state of Saarland
let schluessel = "10"..unwrap;
// Get the record for the state of Saarland
let land = db..unwrap;
println!;
// Iterate over the districts (Kreise) in Saarland
for kreis in db.
// Get the sum of the population of all municipalities in Saarland
let total_population: u64 = db.
.map
.sum;
println!;
Language
The primary language used for the software is English, thus most of documentation and code is in English. Nevertheless a lot of terms are inherently German, and a lot of identifiers in the software use these terms. Here are a few translations:
- Land: State (also called Bundesland)
- Regierungsbezirk: Government district
- Kreis: District
- Gemeinde: Municipality (more literally "community")
- Verband: Association
- Schluessel: Key
- Textkennzeichen: Textual (it's actually a number) identifier for type of Kreis, Gemeindeverband or Gemeinde.
- Daten: data, in context e.g. "Landdaten" means "state data" or "state record".
If you think a translation is incorrect or missing, please open an issue.
