Q: In what language are the data and documentation provided?

The dataset retains the official Spanish column headers and place names (e.g., "Managua", "Barricada") to align with Correos de Nicaragua standards.

Q: What does "Código Maestro" mean in the `barrio` column?

You will see records where the 'barrio' is listed as Código Maestro (typically with a round number like 10000).
Meaning: This stands for "Master Code". It represents the general postal code for the entire municipality or the main post office, used when a specific neighborhood code is unknown or for general delivery to the city center.

Q: How is the administrative hierarchy structured?

The data follows a three-level structure:
· depto (Departamento): The Department, the primary administrative region (e.g., "Managua").
· municipio: The Municipality (e.g., "Managua").
· barrio: The specific neighborhood or district. This is the level at which postal codes are assigned in urban areas.

Q: Does the dataset include street names?

No. The Nicaragua postal system is primarily neighborhood-based (Barrio-based). The postal code (e.g., 11001 for "Centro Histórico Cultural") covers that entire specific neighborhood. It does not resolve to individual street names or house numbers.

Q: What is the format of the postal code?

Nicaragua uses a 5-digit numeric postal code (e.g., 10000, 11025). This is found in the codpostal column. The first three digits usually indicate the municipality or zone, while the last two identify the specific neighborhood.

Q: What file formats are included in the delivery?

The package includes CSV, Excel (.xlsx), and TXT formats. All files are encoded in UTF-8 to ensure correct display of Spanish characters (e.g., ñ, á, é, í, ó, ú).
