Method
Every page is a static HTML file with one shared stylesheet and one map script, so pages load in under a second on a phone. Maps are built with Leaflet and render only when scrolled into view. Figures are checked against the primary source above; where sources disagree (coastline lengths vary by measuring method, for example) the INEGI value is used and the alternative is noted.
Corrections
If a number, name or boundary is wrong, write to editor@mexicomap.org with the page URL and the source for the correction. Corrections are published with the date on the page concerned.
