⚠ Historical source notice. Values from Atolls of Maldives come from a government heritage archive whose island records were last observably updated in August 2024 — and many entries date back to the 1990s–2010s (the site platform itself dates to 2013). Island status, use and ownership — resort, agricultural and industrial leases — may have changed since publication. Where current registries disagree, the registry prefers OneMap and Census 2022 values.
