Types of Maps For 2023 Census: National Population Commission

The document discusses the different types of maps that will be used for Nigeria's 2023 census. The three main types are: 1) Local Government Area maps that will aid planning and monitoring across LGAs. 2) Supervisory Area maps that will help supervisors monitor assigned EAs. 3) Enumeration Area maps that will guide enumerators within their assigned areas and clearly show building locations. Digital maps are expected to help different teams carry out census tasks effectively.

Types of Maps for the Census
1. Local Government Area EA Maps: (LGA Maps):
❖ This is the administrative map for each LGA. It is the seamless array of all
the EAs for the entire LGA covering every inch of land without overlap or
gaps.It is to aid planning for Census to allocate both human and material
resources on LGA basis as well as monitoring of Enumeration progress
during head count.

The Feature layers on this map include:


a) Satellite Imagery: Back drop of all Physical features and Census Entities.
b) Enumeration Area boundary with displayed ID at specific zoom level

c) Supervisory Area boundary with Displayed ID at specific Zoom level
d) INEC Registration Area/Ward with displayed ID at specific level
e) Important features such as Schools, Hospitals, Petrol Stations etc. to aid
location identification
f) Drainage (Rivers, Water bodies, Canals etc.)
g) Roads well annotated.
h) Buildings: All buildings identified during the Demarcation exercise.

2. Supervisory Area (SA) Maps:


❖ This is the Supervisors’ Administrative Map covering a specific area with a
number of EAs allocated to a supervisor for monitoring. It will have the
total number of EAs within the SA clearly identified with their boundaries
and IDs displayed on the map.

❖ The SA map is a ‘Zoom in’ from the LGA map. This will aid the
Supervisor in seeing the neighboring SAs/EAs as well as aid each
Enumerator within his/her Supervisory area to identify his/her boundary of
Enumeration.

❖ It will have all the Feature Layers of EA, SA boundaries, important


features, Drainage, Roads, footpaths and all Buildings within the EA. All
the features are well annotated or coded where applicable.

❖ All LGA and Ward boundaries are also shown where applicable.

3. Enumeration Area (EA) Map:
❖ This is the Map covering the area assigned to each Enumerator for the
Census exercise.
❖ It shows the coverage of the EA with the EA boundary clearly delineated
and the EA ID displayed on the EA polygon.
❖ It shows all buildings within the EA as a point resting on the Building’s
Satellite imagery feature.
❖ A building code will also appear by the side of this point in numeric no
e.g., 1, 2…n. where n is the last code of the building within the EA and
means the total number of buildings within the EA.

❖ The EA Map is a ‘Zoom’ in of the SA map and therefore the Enumerator


can easily identify the neighboring EAs to avoid moving out of his/her EA
during enumeration.
