Convert ONS Shapefiles to GeoJSON

This gist describes how to create GeoJSON polygons from UK statistical boundaries for use in choropleths.

  1. Download the boundaries you're interested in from the ONS's Open Geography Portal:

    wget https://geoportal.statistics.gov.uk/Docs/Boundaries/Clinical_commissioning_groups_\(Eng\)_Apr_2013_Boundaries_\(Generalised_Clipped\).zip -O ccg-2013.zip
    unzip ccg-2013.zip -d shapes
