Service Description: Gridded Population of the World, Version 4 (GPWv4) Population Density Adjusted to Match 2015 UN WPP Country Totals, Revision 11 consists of estimates of human population density based on counts consistent with national censuses and population registers with respect to relative spatial distribution, but adjusted to match the 2015 Revision of UN World Population Prospects country totals for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020. A proportional allocation gridding algorithm, utilizing approximately 13.5 million national and sub-national administrative units, was used to assign population counts to 30 arc-second grid cells. The data files were produced as global rasters at 30 arc-second (~1 km at the equator) resolution. To enable faster global processing, and in support of research communities, the 30 arc-second data were aggregated to 2.5 arc-minute, 15 arc-minute, 30 arc-minute and 1 degree resolutions.

Comments: Gridded Population of the World, Version 4 (GPWv4) Population Density Adjusted to Match 2015 UN WPP Country Totals, Revision 11 consists of estimates of human population density based on counts consistent with national censuses and population registers with respect to relative spatial distribution, but adjusted to match the 2015 Revision of UN World Population Prospects country totals for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020.

Subject: To provide estimates of population density for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015 and 2020, consistent with national censuses and population registers with respect to relative spatial distribution, but adjusted to match United Nations country totals.
