摘要：There have been many changes in the spatial composition and formal delimitation of administrative boundaries of Czech municipalities over the past 30 years. Many municipalities have changed their official status; they separated into ones that were more independent or were merged with existing ones, or formally redrew their boundaries due to advances in mapping technology. Such changes have made it almost impossible to analyze and visualize the temporal development of selected socioeconomic indicators, in order to deliver spatially coherent and time-comparable results. In this data description, we present an evolution of a unique (geo) dataset comprising of the administrative borders of the Czech municipalities. The uniqueness lies in time and topologically justified spatial data resulting in a common division of the administrative units at the LAU2 level, valid from 1995 to 2019. Besides the topologically correct spatial representations of municipalities in Czechia, we also provide correspondence tables for each year in the mentioned period, which allows joining tabular statistics to spatial data. The dataset is available as a base layer for further temporal and spatial analyses and visualization of various socioeconomic statistical data.
