100% of the recorded places have valid coordinates. Almost every record can be placed on a map. 754 records also meet the source-status and category rules for exploration, placing this count 206 of 248.
Make the recorded places easier to find
777 records (92.17%) have a category field. 66 have no category field. Category labels can help organize the recorded activities and places. A website is recorded for 1.9% of the places. A blank website field does not establish whether a business has a website elsewhere.
LANGUAGE & BUSINESS UNDERSTANDING
Plan the conversation before the meeting
Agree on a language everyone in the meeting can use. It shapes how you explain an offer, understand questions, prepare written material, and keep a relationship moving.
Languages listed in the GeoNames country reference: French, Arabic, Sara.
- Which language will we use for the meeting and follow-up?
- Do we need an interpreter or translated written materials?

Each source row is counted once in each distinct source category it carries. Multiple categories can make category counts or shares sum above the country total or 100%. Source rows are counted; no new unique-business census is implied. IDs define categories when usable IDs exist. Label-only rows retain exact source labels. Labels are paired to IDs only when array lengths agree; no parent-category rollup or NAICS/ISIC mapping is inferred.
