On this wiki, we will use the Third Population Census of Bangladesh, which was conducted by Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics on 12, 13, 14 and 15 March, 1991 because the latest census data is not released online yet.

• Data from the 1991 Census.http://www.bangladeshgov.org/mop/ndb/arpc91_v1/tablep01.htm

History:

Bangladesh started census taking in 1872, and then the second census was undertaken in 1881. After that, First Census (Pro Independent) was held 1974 because of the liberation war, and second census was held 1981 and then every 10 years.

: The United States Census Bureau's 2000 Census gazetteer. This was the primary source for the latitude and longitude values for about 23,500 U.S. cities. The data are indexed by state, county, and place FIPS codes.[http://www.census.gov/geo/www/gazetteer/gazette.html U.S. Gazetteer Files: 2000 and 1990]

; GR2

: The United States Census Bureau's 2000 Census data. Much of the geographic and demographic information for the U.S. states, counties, and cities came from the data on the site. The data is not totally accurate due to various polling errors, but it is a very good estimate. See the Bureau's website for more information. The data were used for the following topics: geographic areas (total, land, and water), population and housing unit densities, demographic spreads across race, age, sex, and income. The data are indexed by state, county, and place FIPS codes. See also Race (United States Census) for a list of the definition of race according to the U.S. Census Bureau.[http://factfinder.census.gov American FactFinder]

; GR3

: The Geographic Names Information System developed by the United States Geological Survey. The data contain information on a wide range of geographic features such as populated places, rivers, mountains, etc. The data provided include geographic coordinates, elevation, population (if applicable), and the FIPS codes for the state and county containing the feature (but not the feature itself).[http://geonames.usgs.gov/ U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN)] Note that elevations might be interpolated, locations of non-point features may be either approximate centres or mouths, and locations of cities may be arbitrary choices of a feature within the city. Buildings, post offices, and several other feature classes were added during phase 2, but were removed in 2017 when they were considered in retrospect too burdensome to maintain. Some data views may have been based upon topical subsets, such as the National Map Names, or the "Concise" and "Historic" lists. See also Wikipedia:Reliability of GNIS data.

; GR4

: The FIPS55 database, which contains standardized codes for populated places in the United States. The system describes the codes and the relationships between different entities, such as the part of relationship between a U.S. state and a county. It also contains ZIP code information.[https://geonames.usgs.gov/domestic/download_data.htm#State%20Files%20with%20Federal%20Codes%20--%20File%20Format BGN: Domestic and Antarctic Names - State and Topical Gazetteer Download Files::State Files with Federal Codes]
