Pattern of iso3166codeNot PIIcategoricalDraft

This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).

Code of a country subdivision from ISO 3166-2 written with a dot instead of the hyphen between the two-letter country code and the subdivision part, as in AU.VIC for Victoria. Schema v1 of the ROR data dump stores the region of an organization in this form (geonames_admin1.code). The same shape is used for GeoNames first-level administrative codes, whose subdivision part is not always the ISO one.
