GHS - Population 2020 - 1 km
This GHS-POP spatial raster product (GHS-POP_GLOBE_R2023) depicts the distribution of human population, expressed as the number of people per cell. Residential population estimates at 5 years interval between 1975 and 2030 are derived from the raw global census data harmonized by CIESIN for the Gridded Population of the World, version 4.11 (GPWv4.11) at polygon level, and disaggregated from census or administrative units to grid cells, informed by the distribution, classification and volume of built-up as mapped in the GHSL global layers per corresponding epoch.
