| source_abstract | Population density map for 2018 at 30arcsec resolution. The layer uses the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) - JRC and the national population count for 2018 reported on the World Population Prospects 2019. The original GHSL layer was recalculated at 30arcsec resolution (~1km) through an aggregation process (sum) in Google Earth Engine. Pixel counts were then recalculated for 2018 based on the country population data reported for 2018 by the World Population Prospects 2019. Source of data: GHSL: GHS_POP_E2015_GLOBE_R2019A_4326_30SS_V1_0 (downloaded from JRC [https://ghsl.jrc.ec.europa.eu/download.php?ds=pop at 30arcsec resolution]) Dataset: Schiavina, Marcello; Freire, Sergio; MacManus, Kytt (2019): GHS population grid multitemporal (1975, 1990, 2000, 2015) R2019A.
