Gridded Population of the World, Version 3 (GPWv3): Population Density Grid
Entry ID:
CIESIN_SEDAC_GPWv3_POPDENS
Summary
Abstract:
Gridded Population of the World, Version 3 (GPWv3) consists of estimates of human population for the years 1990, 1995, and 2000 by 2.5 arc-minute grid cells and associated datasets dated circa 2000. A proportional allocation gridding algorithm, utilizing more than 300,000 national and sub-national administrative units, is used to assign population values to grid cells. The population density grids ...
 Purpose: To provide a time series of raster data on population to facilitate data integration.
