United Republic of Tanzania economy data

Financial services: banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, and microfinance branches tagged via `amenity`. Useful for financial-inclusion mapping, cash-distribution planning, and economic analysis. Coverage reflects where volunteer mappers have been active. Urban areas are usually well represented, remote areas may be sparse. Cross-check critical decisions with local field knowledge. - Source: OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map - Tags: amenity - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT

Major cities demand dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis and weighted using the population/market size dimension as a measure of demand. Individual cumulative travel time/cost maps were produced for the country’s 10 largest cities (>200k habitants). The final market/demand layer consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized (0-100) city accessibility grids. The following values were assumed for major cities population of Tanzania: City - Population - Weight % Dar es Salaam - 4,364,541 - 0.579 Mwanza - 706,453 - 0.094 Zanzibar - 501,459 - 0.067 Arusha - 416,442 - 0.055 Mbeya - 385,279 - 0.051 Morogoro - 305,840 - 0.041 Tanga - 221,127 - 0.029 Kigoma - 215,458 - 0.029 Dodoma - 213,636 - 0.028 Songea - 203,309 - 0.027 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 (optimal location). **Data publication:** 2021-11-01 **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [FAO-Data](mailto:fao-data@fao.org) Resource Contact: [Nelson Ribeiro](mailto:Nelson.RosasRibeiroFilho@fao.org) **Data lineage:** lineage statement Produced using OpenStreetMap data for road, railways, cities; GAUL country border; FAO Inland Waters in Africa; FAO Major Rivers in Africa; Population major cities **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 Tanzania major cities demand.

regional cities demand dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis and weighted using the population/market size dimension as a measure of demand. Individual cumulative travel time/cost maps were produced for major regional cities (>250k habitants) less than 500 km from the border. The final market/demand layer consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of the normalized (0-100) city accessibility grids. The following values were assumed: City - Country - Population - Weight % Nairobi - KEN - 4,397,073 - 0.277 Kampala - UGA - 2,094,000 - 0.132 Mombasa - KEN - 1,208,333 - 0.076 Lilongwe - MWI - 1,055,700 - 0.067 Kigali - RWA - 859,332 - 0.054 Blantyre - MWI - 830,100 - 0.052 Nampula - MOZ - 663,212 - 0.042 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 (optimal location). **Data publication:** 2021-11-01 **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [FAO-Data](mailto:fao-data@fao.org) Resource Contact: [Nelson Ribeiro](mailto:Nelson.RosasRibeiroFilho@fao.org) **Data lineage:** lineage statement Produced using OpenStreetMap data for road, railways, cities; GAUL country border; FAO Inland Waters in Africa; FAO Major Rivers in Africa; Population major cities **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 Tanzania regional cities demand
