Field notes

The homepage frames the product as a way around downloading shapefiles, repairing broken accents, matching municipal codes, and configuring projections by hand. It says geographic coverage includes Mexico’s 32 states and 2,478 municipalities, with the INEGI framework integrated and normalized. Listed outputs include 4K PNG, 300-DPI CMYK, editable SVG, and a table for QGIS or ArcGIS; these are landing-page claims, not independently tested here. Alejandro Villeda is named as the creator and describes more than a decade of spatial-data analysis.
