Planet, With People

GPWv4.11 is an open-source collection of data on estimated population distribution at 30 arc-second resolution (approximately 1 km) for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020, available from the NASA Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center (SEDAC). Data on age and sex categories are available for the year 2010.

Most data layers are accessible via open web services and through a spatial query tool (the Population Estimation Service) that supports customized estimates for a circle or polygon submitted by an external app or client.

This dataset, developed by scientists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), provides estimates of built-up areas at 30-meter resolution for 2010 and is complementary to the impervious surfaces dataset below. These data can help to distinguish areas that are built up versus those that are more rural in character, and also areas that may have higher rates of storm runoff and less absorption of water into soils. A Data Visualization and Access Tool (below) is also available from SEDAC.

Remotely-sensed lights at night provide a new data source for improving understanding of interactions between human systems and the environment. Black Marble is a daily calibrated, corrected, and validated product suite produced by NASA GSFC that can be used to detect light pollution, illegal fishing, fires, disaster impacts and recovery, and human settlements and associated energy infrastructures.

This SEDAC tool allows users to compare up to 6 different population data sets (and several urban settlement data sets, coming soon) and to obtain estimates of total population for a user-defined circle or polygon.
