What counts as Northern Territory here?
Wikidata's own administrative boundary: a place is in Northern Territory if its located in the administrative territorial entity chain leads there. Northern Territory is a first-level division of Australia, the same level as a state or a province.
Where does this information come from?
Every place is drawn from Wikidata (CC0), with photographs from Wikimedia Commons and a link to its English Wikipedia article. Selection is deterministic: a place is here because Wikidata files it under one of the classes this atlas carries and it has coordinates, a photo and an article. Nothing is written or chosen by an AI, and the ranking is simply how many Wikipedia language editions cover a place.
