Hi Justin,
Sorry for butting in
The situation you are mentioning could be because there are some villages
that are Enclaves.
There are enclaves even at state level where some villages Belonging
(administratively) to state lie completely inside (geographically) and
surrounded by another State
Devdatta,
Do you have and taluk boundaries from 2001? I just created some (have 5204
features as of today). I am doing a lot of processing to fill in the gaps.
I think I might be able to get the 2001 taluks sometime soon, any help
would be greatly appreciated!

Devdatta,
I lined up a map (spent 5 minutes, might be able to do it a little better
if I spend more time) for Orissa. I used a district shapefile from their
government (or potentially the SOI), I believe it has a custom projection.
They had it up a few weeks ago, then the website disappeared..
Devdatta,
Yikes! I was really hoping there was some dataset(s) out there that
actually made sense... Even the census tables from
the http://censusindia.gov.in/ have duplicates, and it isn't always clear
what record should be used. Some of the village level data I have seen

Hi Justin,
It's very hard to look at Survey of India Digital Data and preserve your
sanity. As you have found out, the boundaries of different Administrative

of the best things in the world.

directly from Survey of India. I have used those files before, and as you
mentioned there were only some 2000 O
Devdatta,
Sorry I didn't type that up. I just finished processing it and was excited
and posted. The previous file i posted had 2,693 features. This file has
2,739 features. Initially I thought the data was relevant to 2001, but
maybe it is 1991 (I have no metadata, the Indian government doe
Hi Justin,
Can you let us know what was the procedure to create this file, and this is
accurate upto which date?
I'm asking this shapefile has 2739 sub districts, and according to the
census, there should be 5564.
Regards,
