# Field boundaries for Japan

Original data converted to fiboa from https://source.coop/repositories/pacificspatial/field-polygon-jp

Provides 29418076 official field boundaries from Japan.
It has been converted to a fiboa GeoParquet file from data obtained from 
Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF, 農林水産省).

Japanese Farmland Parcel Polygons (Fude Polygons in Japanese) represent parcel information of farmland. 
The polygons are manually digitized data derived from aerial imagery, such as satellite images. 
Since no on-site verification or similar procedures have been conducted, the data may not necessarily 
match the actual current conditions. Fude Polygons are created for the purpose of roughly indicating 
the locations of farmland.
