Usage guide Note that for some fokontany, these values are *very* different from the INSTAT values. Comparisons with the size of residential areas and the number of buildings derived from OpenStreetMap found that these values corresponded better with the external dataset than those derived from the INSTAT national census. For this reason, we believe this local dataset to be more accurate and often use it in the place of INSTAT census data for the 80 fokontany for which it is available. When extrapolating to other years
