DATA DESCRIPTION: Gridded, spatial datasets for Africa providing version 1.0 estimates for dependency ratios at sub-national level. Ratios are based on sub-national estimates for 5-year age group proportions. The series is comprised of 3 raster datasets: 1) The ratio of dependents (both young, 0 to 14, and old, 65 ) upon the working age population; 2) The ratio of young dependents upon the working age population; 3) The ratio of older dependents upon the working age population. \r\n<\/p>
REGION: Africa \r\n<\/p>
DATA RESOLUTION: Sub-national administrative areas \r\n<\/p>
SPATIAL RESOLUTION: 0.00833333 decimal degrees (approx 1km at the equator) \r\n<\/p>
PROJECTION: Geographic, WGS84 \r\n<\/p>
UNITS: Sub-national dependency ratios \r\n<\/p>
FORMAT: Geotiff (zipped using 7-zip (open access tool): www.7-zip.org) \r\n<\/p>
DATASET CONSTRUCTION DETAILS: This dataset is derived from the WorldPop Whole Continent Age Structures data series, described here: \r\n<\/p>
http:\/\/www.worldpop.org.uk\/data\/data_sources\/. The Population count raster datasets for the relevant age groups were combined using spatial analytical tools in a GIS system, in order to derive the dependency ratios.
