The spatial raster dataset depicts the distribution of residential population, expressed as the number of people per cell. Residential population estimates between 1975 and 2020 in 5-year intervals and projections to 2025 and 2030 derived from CIESIN GPWv4.11 were disaggregated from census or administrative units to grid cells, informed by the distribution, volume, and classification of built-up as mapped in the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) global layer per corresponding epoch.
Description: The spatial raster dataset depicts the spatial distribution of the building heights as extracted from the filtering of a composite of global digital elevation models (DEM) and the filtering of satellite imagery using linear regression techniques The used input DEMs are the ALOS World 3D - 30m (AW3D30, 2006-2011) and the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission 30m (SRTM30, 2000). The building heights extracted from these sources are updated using the support of the shadow markers extracted from the Sentinel2 image data composite of the year 2018 (GHS-composite-S2 R2020A). The Average of the Gross Building Height is the result of dividing the built-up volume by the grid surface. The Average of the Net Building Height is the result of dividing the built-up volume by the built-up surface.
This product contains the spatial raster dataset grids from 1975 to 2100 at 5 years interval representing the distribution of human population, expressed as the number of people per cell. Residential population estimates at 5 years interval between 1975 and 2020 are derived from the raw global census data harmonized by CIESIN for the Gridded Population of the World (GPWv4.11) combined with population trends obtained from the Urban Agglomeration time series of the UN World Urbanisation Prospects 2018 (UN WUP 2018 - F22). The 2025-2100 population projections are computed following the 2000-2020 local growth rate in subnational Functional Areas converging to the national growth rate (UN World Population Prospects, 2024) in 100 years and downscaled using CRISP methodology.
The spatial raster dataset depicts the distribution of built-up surfaces, expressed as number of square metres. The data report about the total built-up surface and the built-up surface allocated to dominant non-residential (NRES) uses. Data are spatial-temporal interpolated or extrapolated from 1975 to 2030 in 5 years intervals. For the temporal anchor point of 2018 the data is published at 10m as observed from the S2 image data.
