The Five Safes is a framework for helping make decisions about making effective use of data which is confidential or sensitive. It is mainly used to describe or design research access to statistical data held by government and health agencies, and by data archives such as the UK Data Service.
In political geography, an enclave is a piece of land belonging to one country (or region etc.) that is totally surrounded by another country (or region). An exclave is a piece of land that is politically attached to a larger piece but not physically contiguous with it (connected to it) because they are completely separated by a surrounding foreign territory or territories.
An enclave is a territory that is entirely surrounded by the territory of only one other state or entity. An enclave can be an independent territory or part of a larger one. [1] Enclaves may also exist within territorial waters. [2]: 60 Enclave is sometimes used improperly to denote a territory that is only partly surrounded by another state. [1]
However, some sources define enclave in the narrow way Wikipedia does (i.e. surrounded by a single foreign country), and then define exclave as the enclave viewed from its parent country (i.e. the same extension as the OED, but extending a different definition of enclave). One example is this PDF (13.5 MB): Whyte, Brendan R. (2002, revised 2004).
There are also many different types of geodata, including vector files, raster files, geographic databases, web files, and multi-temporal data. Spatial data or spatial information is broader class of data whose geometry is relevant but it is not necessarily georeferenced, such as in computer-aided design (CAD), see geometric modeling.
In political geography, an enclave is a piece of land entirely surrounded by the territory of another equivalent-level entity (and only that entity). [1] An exclave is a piece of land that is politically connected to a larger piece but not physically conterminous with it because the territory of other equivalent-level entity or entities entirely surround it. [2]
Articles relating to enclaves and exclaves. An enclave is a territory (or a part of one) that is entirely surrounded by the territory of one other state. An exclave is a portion of a state or territory geographically separated from the main part by surrounding alien territory (of one or more states).
Geographic Data Files (GDF) is an interchange file format for geographic data. In contrast with generic GIS formats , GDF provides detailed rules for data capture and representation, and an extensive catalog of standard features, attributes and relationships.
