Accessibility: Travel Time-Cost to Major Cities (Lao PDR - ~ 1km)

Accessibility to major cities dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis, computed for the largest cities (>10k habitants) in the country. This 500 m resolution raster dataset is part of FAO's Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis (GIS-MCDA) aimed at the identification of value chain infrastructure sites (or optimal location). **Data publication:** 2021-10-13 **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [FAO-DATA](mailto:fao-data@fao.org) Resource Contact: [Maribel Elias](mailto:maribel.elias@fao.org) **Data lineage:** lineage statement Produced using OpenStreetMap data for roads, railways, waterways, the HydroSHEDS 15' resolution GRID for the DEM, GHSL - Global Human Settlement Layer, The Hand-in-Hand Initiative, 2020 **Resource constraints:** This work is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license (CC-BY 4.0) **Online resources:** Accessibility: Travel time-cost to major cities
