Method: what we add to the raw data

Seven scattered layers were merged into two with unified fields: sites and monuments in one, cultural facilities in the other.
Every feature was attributed to its governorate, delegation and sector by location — the main addition here, since most source layers carry no administrative attribution.
Arabic names where the source records them, French names throughout, and an explicit field showing which sites are named.
Heritage-building attributes (period, original and current function, condition, listing) were carried over as recorded, with empty values cleaned.
Site density per delegation was computed as sites per 100 km².

Limitations

3812 archaeological sites carry no name in the source, only a record code. This is a source limitation, not a processing gap, and an explicit field marks it.
Heritage-building attributes are filled in roughly 60% of cases; the rest are empty in the source.
Sites are points, not boundaries, and a recorded area exists for only part of them.
Only the Nabeul layer carries historical periods in Arabic and French.
3 museums carry no coordinates in the source, so they are not mapped; they are supplied by name in a separate table.
Coverage follows the official register; known sites absent from it are not included.
