Census-based gridded population estimates for Burkina Faso (2019), version 1.0

These data were produced by the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton. This work is part of the GRID3 (Geo-Referenced Infrastructure and Demographic Data for Development) project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development (OPP1182408). Project partners include WorldPop at the University of Southampton, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) in the Earth Institute at Columbia University, and the Flowminder Foundation. The Zambia Statistics Agency supported and facilitated this work, and provided the household survey datasets. The modelling work was led by Claire A. Dooley with support from Douglas R. Leasure. Geospatial data processing was carried out by Heather R. Chamberlain, Claire A. Dooley and Oliver Pannell. Coordination and stakeholder engagement was led by Heather R. Chamberlain and Claire A. Dooley with support from Polly Marshall. Oversight was provided by Andrew J. Tatem and Attila N. Lazar. Note, these data are operational population estimates and are not official government statistics For further details, please, read ZMB_population_v1_0_README.pdf __Recommended citation__ _WorldPop (School of Geography and Environmental Science, University of Southampton). 2020.

This work provides an estimate of the geographic distribution of the population of Mozambique in 2017. The outputs are intended as an interim population product to support ongoing development and operations work until such time as the official 2017 Population and Housing Census results are available in a spatial gridded format. At that time, this interim gridded population layer will be superseded and users will be advised to use the official gridded population release from INE.

These data consist of modelled gridded population estimates produced at a spatial resolution of approximately 100m across Mali. The estimates comprise a combination of total population counts at enumeration area level collected by the census cartography team of the Mali Statistics Office and modelled population counts created using a Bayesian statistical model for areas that could not be covered by the cartography team because of security issues. The main input data for the model are the cartography data collected in the safe part of the country in 2019-2020 (628 out of 714 Communes –administrative level 3–, that is 87% of the country territory). Other essential input data include metrics derived from building footprints, which were automatically delineated by Ecopia.AI in 2021 using satellite imagery collected by Maxar Technologies between 2010 and 2021. The modelled population estimates represent the period of the census cartography, but their consistency may be impacted by the accuracy of the building footprints. These data were produced by the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton as part of the GRID3 Project, GRID3 (Geo-Referenced Infrastructure and Demographic Data for Development) programme funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (INV 009579, formerly OPP 1182425). The study was approved by the Faculty Ethics Committee of the University of Southampton (ERGO II 64957). The project was led by the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia University, in collaboration with the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton, the United Nations Fund for Population (UNFPA) and the Malian Institut National de la Statistique (INSTAT). The production of these data was led by Edith Darin (WorldPop) with support from Matthias Kuépié and Jean Wakam (UNFPA), Abdoul Karim Diawara, Assa Gakou and Siaka Cissé (Institut National de la Statistique), and Attila N Lazar (WorldPop) and Andrew J Tatem (WorldPop).

The UCLA-DRC Health Research and Training Program, the Kinshasa School of Public Health (KSPH), and the Bureau Central du Recensement (BCR) coordinated and conducted the two microcensus rounds. The Oak Ridge National Laboratory contributed to the first round of microcensus. We acknowledge the contribution of the many individuals within these institutions. __Recommended citation:__ _Boo G, Darin E, Leasure DR, Dooley CA, Chamberlain HR, Lazar AN, Tatem AJ. 2020.
