is there a creative commons collection of country maps in svg format with corresponding country code

Question

For a little hobby project am looking for a collection of svg files of maps of all countries in the world separately with the country codes included in the svg or filename. It would have a structure like this:

• AFG.svg
• ALB.svg
• ...
• ZMB.svg
• ZWE.svg

It would also be nice to have to have a projection that keeps the size of the countries realistically since i will use them to compare pairs of countries.

I have looked on the following places:

• https://www.jasondavies.com/maps/countries-by-area/ Don't know if it can be used for non-commerical purposes and the countries do not contain the country code.
• https://www.amcharts.com/svg-maps/ Doesn't have a package containing all the countries, also does not have the country code.

I also found a couple more resources which contain the whole world as one svg or seperate countries but no collection with all of them with country codes included.

Is there a resource which offers use for non-commercial purposes svg of countries with a way to identify them by country code?

Answer 1

mapsicon

mapsicon is a free collection of maps for every country in the world, available in 11 sizes or in SVG.
The maps are named after the official two-letter country codes defined in ISO 3166-1. Basically, that means the United States are named US, Canada is named CA, etc.
If you need to access all those countries programmatically, here is a gist containing all the countries as well as their ISO code: https://gist.github.com/djaiss/2938259"

There's also:
Simple World Map: a simple and lightweight SVG world map, annotated with two-letter country code standard ISO 3166-1 alpha 2. This map is one SVG, not individual SVGs.
and
Marked-Up SVG World Map: an SVG world map marked-up with ISO 3166 country codes. Path (path) and group (g) elements are annotated with cc attributes containing their country codes.
