Slaughterhouse Location Score: Poultry (The Gambia - ~ 500 m)

The raster dataset consists of a 500 m score grid for slaughterhouse industry facilities, produced under the scope of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis for value chain infrastructure location. The analysis is based on livestock production potential using proximity to cities, crop production, and aggregated density of cattle, goats, and sheep. Animal weight: Goat 30kg (X0.11); Sheep 30kg (X0.11); Cattle 210kg (X0.78). The score is achieved by processing sub-model outputs that characterize logistical factors: 1. Supply - Feed and livestock distribution. 2. Infrastructure - Transportation network (accessibility) 3. Atlas AI Asset Wealth Index. It consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized grids (0 to 100): (”Livestock Density” * 0.4) + ("Asset Wealth" * 0.3) + (“Major Cities Accessibility” * 0.2) + ("Crop Production" * 0.1) **Data publication:** 2022-05-12 **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [FAO-Data](mailto:fao-data@fao.org) Resource Contact: [Justeen De Ocampo](mailto:justeen.deocampo@fao.org) **Data lineage:** lineage statement lineage statement Major data sources, FAO GIS platform Hand-in-Hand and OpenStreetMap (open data) including the following datasets 1.
