Why High-Resolution Spatial Data on Population Matters
Accurate and up-to-date measurement of local population distribution is crucial to a wide range of geospatial analysis – with many models regularly suffering at the hands of out-of-date census data. WorldPop started in 2013 with the aim of creating global, contemporary, and freely-available human population distribution data for use cases such as epidemic mapping, transport and urban planning, accessibility modelling, disaster management, and many more.
- The webinar will cover:
- WorldPop: how it started, evolved and what’s next
- Where to find and how to access WorldPop in CARTO Data Observatory
- How WorldPop data plays an essential role in site planning, geomarketing, mobility planning
We’ll also hold a Q&A session at the end of the webinar, so feel free to bring your questions.
