Map of the month October 2024: International Day of the Girl Child

11 October is International Day of the Girl Child to recognize girls’ rights and the unique challenges girls face around the world. On this occasion, we take a look at the ratio of girl childs (female population aged 0 to 14, values as of 1 January 2022) in the Centrope region. The map shows higher values in the Northern and Eastern parts of the region and especially high values in the Greater Bratislava area. Lower values can be seen in the border regions between Austria and the Czech Republic as well as between Austria and Hungary. However, this is also caused by the overall smaller number of children in these areas. The map is available through our geoportal map.centropemap.org.

Chart of the month October

In October, we take a look at the development of goods transport in the Centrope countries. The timeline is available from 2012 to 2023 and shows values for road and rail transport in units of 1,000 tons (road: count by country of vehicle registration, rail: count by country of railway network, so road transit transport is not considered in this analysis). The chart shows an overall increase of goods transported on the road network while the amount of goods shifted via rail stays more or less constant over the depicted period. The gap in the year 2020 is obviously caused by the pandemic, the decrease since 2022 may be a result of the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Overview

CentropeMAP/STATISTICS is a cross-border information system and free geoportal of the Austrian Planning Association East (PGO) which gives planners, decision makers, researchers, teachers, students and everyone else interested a better overview of the Centrope region.

CentropeMAP is a geoportal connecting the region by collecting web map services from the partner countries. The services are brought together in a single map viewer and allow the user to experience a cross-border working area with dozens of data layers dealing with all topics which could be of interest for regional planners and similar professions. Layers are coming from the fields of biota, boundaries, elevation, imagery/base maps, inland waters, planning/cadastre, structure, and transportation.

CentropeSTATISTICS is the only available free web tool to visualise cross-border statistical data in its own connected geoportal allowing the user to influence the way of visualisation in multiple ways in the Centrope region. CentropeSTATISTICS can not only create maps, it also serves charts which are interactively created from the data in the cross-border database. For the Czech Republic, CentropeSTATISTICS does not only cover the Centrope county Jihomoravský, but also features data from the counties Vysočina and Jihočesky which are also adjacent or close to the Austrian border.
