FUNCTIONAL URBAN AREAS IN NON-OECD COUNTRIES: COLOMBIA Notes: This map is for illustrative purposes and is without prejudice to the status of or sovereignty over any territory covered by these maps. The functional urban areas identified with the methodology described in the book Redefining “urban”: A new way to measure metropolitan areas, OECD Publishing 2012 are here listed by size, according to four classes: Small urban areas, with population between 50,000 and 200,000 Medium-sized urban areas, with population between 200,000 and 500,000 Metropolitan areas, with population between 500,000 and 1.5 million Large metropolitan areas, with population above 1.5 million Each functional urban area is an economic unit characterised by densely inhabited “city core” and “commuting zone” whose labour market is highly integrated with the cores. The geographic building blocks to define urban areas are the municipalities (e.g. LAU2 in European countries). The city cores are defined using the population grid from the global dataset Landscan, referred to circa year 2000. Polycentric cores and the hinterlands of the functional areas are identified on the basis of commuting data (travel from home-to-work) referred to circa year 2000 (Census year). The list of functional urban areas takes into account the results of the consultation with the European National Version: June 2016 Statistical Institutes launched by Eurostat in June 2011 on the definition of cities and by the OECD with Delegates from the Working Party on Territorial Indicators. This list of functional urban areas may be reviewed on the basis of additional comments provided by Countries. The OECD Metropolitan Areas Database which provides a set of economic, environmental, social and demographic estimated indicators on the 281 OECD metropolitan areas (functional urban areas with 500 000 or more inhabitants). Additionally, interactive maps, histograms and summary profiles of each metropolitan area are available on the MetroeXplorer tool.
