Leaf: Population Dataset: Global population grids
Global gridded datasets estimate population counts and density on regular cells (for example 1 km or 100 m depending on product/version).
Representative products:
| Product | Geometry | Typical Resolution | Scope |
|---|---|---|---|
| GHSL Population Grid (GHS-POP) | Raster grid | 250 m to 1 km | Global |
| WorldPop | Raster grid | ~100 m (country dependent) | Global (modelled) |
| GPWv4 (CIESIN) | Raster grid | ~1 km | Global |
