    This data release provides gridded population estimates (spatial resolution of 3 arc-seconds, approximately 100 m grid cells) with national coverage for Nigeria, along with estimates of the number of people belonging to various age-sex groups. Version 2.1 is an update to the previous version 2.0 gridded population estimates and is based on a correction of the settlement map. These model-based population estimates most likely represent the time period around 2019, corresponding to the period when the satellite imagery was processed to generate building footprints. Populations are mapped only into areas where residential settlements are predicted. These data were produced by the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton. This work was part of the GRID3 Bridge Funding project with funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (INV-045694). Project partners included the GRID3 Inc and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network in the Earth Institute at Columbia University. Statistical modelling was originally led by Chris Jochem and Doug Leasure with additional support and oversight from Attila Lazar and Andy Tatem. Ortis Yankey led the population map update with additional support from Edith Darin. The authors followed rigorous procedures designed to ensure that the used data, the applied method and thus the results are appropriate and of reasonable quality.

    This project was initiated in 2021 to generate modelled population estimates for Papua New Guinea (PNG) to support their census preparations. It was powered by the Australian Government through the PNGAus partnership, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA ) and the PNG National Statistical Office. The project team combined recent 2019-2021 malaria bednet campaign data, urban structural listing 2021 data, and geospatial covariates to model and estimate population numbers at census unit level, and aggregate at other relevant administrative units (e.g., national, province, and districts) using a Bayesian statistical hierarchical modelling framework. The approach facilitated simultaneous accounting for the multiple levels of variability within the data hierarchy. It also allowed the quantification of uncertainties in parameter estimates. These model-based population estimates can be considered as most accurately representing the years 2020-21. This time period corresponds to the malaria survey and urban structural listing survey observations (2019-2021; median year: 2020) and the period of the satellite imagery used to generate settlement footprints (2021). Although the methods were robust enough to explicitly account for key random biases within the datasets, it is noted that systematic biases, which may arise from sources other than random errors within the observed data collection process, are most likely to remain. These data were produced by the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton in collaboration with the National Statistical Office of PNG and UNFPA under the project called “Population-modelled estimation for Papua New Guinea in collaboration with the National Statistical Office, 2021-22” (PNG40-0000004504). The final statistical modelling was designed, developed, and implemented by Chris Nnanatu. Data processing was done by Amy Bonnie with additional support from Tom Abbott, Tom McKeen, Heather Chamberlain, Ortis Yankey, Duygu Cihan and Assane Gadiaga. Project oversight was done by Attila Lazar and Andy Tatem. Household survey listing data were provided by the National Statistical Office, and the settlement footprint was generated by Planet. Please, note that the same modelled population data (with minor rounding difference of 41 in the national total) can also be downloaded from the NSO’s website: https://www.nso.gov.pg/statistics/population/ How to cite this work WorldPop and National Statistical Office of Papua New Guinea. 2022.

This work was part of the GRID3 project with funding from the United Nations Children's Fund ( UNICEF ) - Population Modelling for use in Routine Health Planning and Monitoring project (contract no. 43335861). Projects partners included the Kenya Unicef Regional and Country Offices, WorldPop research group at the University of Southampton and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network in the Columbia Climate School at Columbia University. Assane Gadiaga (WorldPop) led the input processing and the modelling work following the Random Forest (RF)-based dasymetric mapping approach developed by Stevens et al. (2015). Thomas Abbott supported the covariates processing work. In-country engagements were done by David Kyalo, Olena Borkovska ( GRID3 , Maria Muniz (Unicef). Using the 2009 and 2019 census data from the Kenya’s National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), the US Census Bureau released the census-based total population projections, population by age and sex and digital sub-counties boundaries. Duygu Cihan helped in the preparation of these input population data. Attila N Lazar, Edith Darin and Heather Chamberlain advised on the modelling procedure.

    These data were produced by WorldPop at the University of Southampton. These data include gridded estimates of population at approximately 100m and 1km for 2022, along with estimates of the number of people belonging to individual age-sex groups. These results were produced using subnational population estimates for Sudan in 2022 provided in the Common Operational Dataset on Population Statistics (COD-PS) and built-up surfaces/volumes covariates extracted from GHSL datasets; GHS-BUILT-Surface epoch 2020 layer , combined with Digitize Africa building footprints, were used to delineate settled areas. The constrained and unconstrained top-down disaggregation method was used to produce the datasets, i.e. population was only estimated within areas classified as containing built settlement. The modelling work and geospatial data processing was led by Bondarenko M. and Leasure D.R.. Oversight was provided by Tatem A.J. For further details, please, read the Release Statement.

    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).

    WorldPop produces different types of gridded population count datasets, depending on the methods used and end application. Please make sure you have read our Mapping Populations overview page before choosing and downloading a dataset. Bespoke methods used to produce datasets for specific individual countries are available through the WorldPop Open Population Repository (WOPR) link below. These are 100m resolution gridded population estimates using customized methods ("bottom-up" and/or "top-down") developed for the latest data available from each country. They can also be visualised and explored through the woprVision App. The remaining datasets in the links below are produced using the "top-down" method, with either the unconstrained or constrained top-down disaggregation method used.
