location-data-bj

[ABOUT]

About

location-data-bj provides Benin's full official administrative hierarchy β€” 12 departments, 77 communes, arrondissements, and locality records β€” covering every stack a developer might use. The same dataset ships as a JavaScript/TypeScript package for web and Node applications, as a Dart package for Flutter mobile apps, and as raw JSON files and SQL dumps for direct database seeding or use in any other language. An interactive JavaScript demo is hosted at location-bj.claviscore.com so the full hierarchy can be explored before integration. It eliminates the need for developers building Beninese-market applications to manually curate, validate, and maintain administrative geodata from primary sources.
