In Italy, since last update, Trieste, Pordenone, Gorizia, etc etc. are gone...

The provinces now have 'ADM2H', but need to be ADM2.

Why has been changed?

yes, this is a pain

There was a restructuring in Friuli Venezia Giulia in 2017/2018 where the provinces have lost their function and have been replaced by unioni territoriali intercomunali.
To reflect this situation we have started to change the adm2 to adm2h, unfortunately we find that istat and even the region websites still use the provinces. From this point of view it would make sense to undo the change and also stick with the provinces, at least for some more time till it becomes visible what happens with the provinces and the UTIs:

What do you think?

Hi Marc,
yes, I've understood about Unioni Territoriali Intercomunali, but yes... I think that is better to undo the situation as before, simply because in our "normal routine" nothing will happens.

Currently we don't know perfectly about provinces future, but I think that, at the end, nothing will happen.

Maybe could be also nice to mantain ADM2 and create another level?

I will undo the change right now.

We could add the UTIs as ADMD.

Do you have a spreadsheet of the UTIs with the istat comune id of the comunes belonging to each UTI? It would help a lot to create the ADMD and assign the adm3 as children in the hierarchy.

Best Regards

Marc

So do you need a file with 2 columns (ISTAT COMUNE ID | UTI)?
