This Repository is a very slightly modified verion of Gary Pang's repository.
This will hopefully allow other developer to show their data on a Lebanese map and make it easier for data visualization.
The Map is based on 3 ShapeFile files downloaded from this website
The Json is a TOPOJSON file which takes less space then your your typical geojson file.
In order to convert the ShapeFile to a topo Json I used the following site.
You can check the interactive D3 map on the link below
It's divided into 3 sections.
muhafazah (محافظة) You can use your mouse to hover over the different areas and check their name.
Now developers can add data for each region that would show on the tooltip.
kaza (قضاء) As you hover your mouse on the region. The tooltip shows the name of the Qada2 and the region that is in.
The tooltip would show the name of the Village, the name of the district it is apart of, and the Mohafaza it is apart of.
I would like to give credit CodeWritingCow for making his D3.js map of Syria repository public making the development of this repository much easier.
This the first GEO JSON of lebanon with english and arabic names embedded. This has proven to be more difficult than expected and I dedicated a specific repo to it. Lebanese-Villages-List Repository I'm a bit lost on how to match the rest of the villages. I'm open to ideas and suggestions there. The ReadMe on that repositry would tell you what I have already tried.
Please feel free to submit any issues, star the repository, and fork it for your personal projects. I'm putting this project under an MIT open License to encourage as many projects as possible for whatever purpose they serve. I'm also available on twitter at @BahoKaram

We might later on do a more info link for the villages you see through this link http://www.localiban.org/lebanon
First level : Eight muhafazah-s. Second level : Twenty-five kaza-s. Third level : 1 029 municipalities (baladia, may 2016). Two or more municipalities could form a federation of municipalities.
