Population Weighted Density |
National level Population Weighted Density (PWD) metrics produced using
1km WorldPop population datasets.
The metrics is available to download in geojson, csv and shp file format.
The population weighted density metrics presented here include:
PWC (Lat, Lon) – contains the population weighted centroids
PWD_A - PWD of region calculated using arithmetic mean to average the weighted densities (Craig et al., 1984)
PWD_G - PWD based on the geometric mean (Craig et al., 1984) .
PWD_M – population weighted median density based on
weighted median
, as suggested by
Ottensmann (2018)
PWD_P{1..100} - distribution quantiles
Please make sure you have read our Population Weighted Density overview page before choosing and downloading a dataset.
