[Geoinquiets Barcelona] census data & shapefiles

[Wladimir Szczerban]

Hi,

Georgia,

Perhaps the problem is that there are several municipal codes. Possibly the
difference between 10 and 11 digits is the municipal 5 digit code (2
provincial + 3  municipality) and the municipal code of 6 digits.
The 6 digit code is equal to 5 digits plus a check digit (2 province
+ 3 municipality
+ 1 control).

In this link you can see a table with the relations of the various municipal
codes of Catalonia
