Gridded Population of the World, Version 3 (GPWv3): Centroids
Entry ID:
CIESIN_SEDAC_GPWv3_CENTROIDS
Summary
Abstract:
Gridded Population of the World, Version 3 (GPWv3) Centroids consists of estimates of human population counts and densities for the years 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015 by administrative unit centroid location. The centroids are based on the 399,781 input administrative units used in GPWv3. In addition to population counts and variables, the centroids have associated administrative unit ...
 Purpose: To provide a vector (point) version of the input administrative units used in GPWv3 for use in data integration.
