Accessibility: Travel Time-Cost to Regional Cities (Nepal ~ 1Km)

Accessibility to cities dataset is modeled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis. The model travel time/cost from/to cities is defined as the OpenStreetMap national capital, cities, and towns within Nepal. This 1km 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:** 2021-10-15 **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [FAO-DATA](mailto:fao-data@fao.org) Resource Contact: [Andry Rajaoberison](mailto:Andry.Rajaoberison@fao.org) **Data lineage:** lineage statement Produced using OpenStreetMap data for roads, railways, waterways, Global Multi-resolution Terrain Elevation Data 30s (GMTED2010), 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:** Zipped raster TIF file for accessibility to major cities (Nepal ~ 1Km)

Accessibility to major cities dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis, computed for the largest cities (>50k habitants) in the country.
