I've used world() to download world maps at all five different resolutions. I notice that the countries available are different with each resolution. There are 252 polygons at resolution 2:
I checked the polygons, and Gibraltar isn't subsumed within Spain, it's just missing from the resolution = 1 map. It would make sense if the highest resolution maps included some countries that were too small to represent in the lower resolution layers, but this seems to be the opposite - shouldn't everything that appears in the second highest resolution map also appear in the highest resolution map?
I'm not sure if this is a geodata issue, or something upstream at GADM?
Hi,
I've used

to download world maps at all five different resolutions. I notice that the countries available are different with each resolution. There are 252 polygons at resolution 2:But only 231 at the highest resolution. In particular, the following countries are missing:

It would make sense if the highest resolution maps included some countries that were too small to represent in the lower resolution layers, but this seems to be the opposite - shouldn't everything that appears in the second highest resolution map also appear in the highest resolution map?I'm not sure if this is a geodata issue, or something upstream at GADM?
