The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The All Roads Shapefile includes all features within the MTDB Super Class "Road/Path Features" distinguished where the MAF/TIGER Feature Classification Code (MTFCC) for the feature in MTDB that begins with "S". This includes all primary, secondary, local neighborhood, and rural roads, city streets, vehicular trails (4wd), ramps, service drives, alleys, parking lot roads, private roads for service vehicles (logging, oil fields, ranches, etc.), bike paths or trails, bridle/horse paths, walkways/pedestrian trails, and stairways.

The zip files contain the following files:SLE_population_v1_0_gridded.tifThis geotiff raster (.tif), at a resolution of 3 arc (approximately 100m at the equator), contains estimated population counts per grid cell across Sierra Leone. The projection is Geographic Coordinate System, WGS84. ‘NoData’ values represent areas that were mapped as unsettled based on building footprints from “Digitize Africa data © 2020 Maxar Technologies, Ecopia.AI”. These data are stored as floating-point numbers rather than integers to avoid rounding errors in aggregated population totals for larger areas.SLE_population_v1_0_agesex.zipThis zip file contains 36 geotiff rasters (.tif) at a resolution of 3 arc (approximately 100m at the equator). The projection is Geographic Coordinate System, WGS84. Each raster contains estimated counts per grid cell for an age-sex group. The file names refer to the age-sex group represented by the raster. Age-sex group labels beginning with “f” are female populations and labels beginning with “m” are male populations. The age group labels refer to the first year of the age range. For example: “f_0” is females less than one year old. “f1” is females 1 to 4 years old. “f5” is females 5 to 9 years old. “f10” is females 10 to 14 years old. This pattern continues for each 5 year interval up to 80. “f80” is females greater than 80 years old. The labelling is the same for males: “m0”, “m1”, “m5”, “m10”, ... , “m80”.Data Citation: WorldPop and Statistics Sierra Leone. 2020.

These data were produced by the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton. This work was part of the GRID3 project with funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the United Kingdom's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (INV-009579, formerly OPP1182425), and GRID3 COVID-19 Support Scale-up (INV-018067). Project partners included the United Nations Population Fund, Center for International Earth Science Information Network in the Columbia Climate School at Columbia University, and the Flowminder Foundation. The new age-structured population estimates are based on the existing Census-based gridded population estimates for Burkina Faso (2019), version 1.0 (WorldPop and Institut National de la Statistique et de la Demographie du Burkina Faso, 2020). Duygu Cihan, Heather Chamberlain and Thomas Abbott led the data processing, with advice from Édith Darin.RELEASE CONTENT Aggregated_BFA_under18_population_100m.tif Aggregated_BFA_18_45_population_100m.tif Aggregated_BFA_over45_population_100m.tifFILE DESCRIPTIONS The coordinate system for all GIS files is the geographic coordinate system WGS84 (World Geodetic System 1984, EPSG: 4326). Aggregated_BFA_ under18_population _100m.tifThis geotiff raster, at a spatial resolution of 3 arc-seconds (approximately 100m at the equator), contains estimates of the total population of persons aged under 18 (0-17) per grid cell across Burkina Faso. NA values represent areas that were mapped as unsettled based on gridded building patterns derived from building footprints (Dooley and Tatem, 2020). These data are stored as floating-point numbers rather than integers to avoid rounding errors in aggregated population totals for larger areas.Aggregated_BFA_18_45_population_100m.tif This geotiff raster, at a spatial resolution of 3 arc-seconds (approximately 100m at the equator), contains estimates of the total population of persons aged 18 to 45 (18-45) per grid cell across Burkina Faso. NA values represent areas that were mapped as unsettled based on gridded building patterns derived from building footprints (Dooley and Tatem, 2020). These data are stored as floating-point numbers rather than integers to avoid rounding errors in aggregated population totals for larger areas. Aggregated_BFA_over45_population_100m.tif This geotiff raster, at a spatial resolution of 3 arc-seconds (approximately 100m at the equator), contains estimates of the total population of persons aged over 45 (46+) per grid cell across Burkina Faso. NA values represent areas that were mapped as unsettled based on gridded building patterns derived from building footprints (Dooley and Tatem, 2020). These data are stored as floating-point numbers rather than integers to avoid rounding errors in aggregated population totals for larger areas.METHODS OVERVIEW Processing: The existing 2019 gridded population estimates (WorldPop and Institut National de la Statistique et de la Demographie du Burkina Faso, 2020) include age- and sex- structured population estimates for 5 year age classes, based on the age and sex breakdown of population totals at the national level, from the preliminary census results. A Sprague multiplier approach was used to further disaggregate the 5-year age classes at the national level, to create three custom age-classes (under 18, 18-45 and over 45). The population for each of these custom age classes, was calculated as the proportion of the total population at the national level. This proportion was applied to the count of total population at the grid cell level.ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS The custom age classes are estimated using a Sprague multiplier approach to interpolate the 5-year age classes and provide the population for a single year age class, which is then summed to provide the custom age classes. Interpolation introduces uncertainty in the estimates.The population estimates for the custom age classes were calculated from national level totals for 5-year age classes. A constant age-structure across all grid cells was assumed in applying the national proportions for the custom age classes to the grid cell level.RELEASE HISTORYVersion 1.0 (25/05/2022) - Original release of this data set.WORKS CITEDDooley, C.
