Entry ID:
CIESIN_SEDAC_GRUMP_LECZ
Summary
Abstract:
The Low Elevation Coastal Zone (LECZ) Urban-Rural Estimates consists of country-level estimates of urban, rural and total population and land area country-wide and in the LECZ, if applicable. Additionally, the dataset provides the number of urban extents, their population and land area that intersect the LECZ, by city-size population classifications of <100,000, 100,000 to 500,000, 500,000 to ...
 Purpose: To provide estimates of urban and rural populations and land areas in the low elevation coastal zone.
