Based on eleven indicators, thirteen TOPOI, here understood as settlement types of similar characteristics, were found in two exemplary study regions in Lower Saxony, Germany revea-ling new insights into the interrelation of settlement units in an urban-rural context. The data is provided as a file geodata-base (.gdb) including two components, a file geodatabase table and a file geodatabase feature class. File geodatabase feature class contains shapes of the settlement units, the table cont-ains the classification in settlement types with the correspon-ding indicator values.
