Kenya KE: Population in Largest City data was reported at 4,222,389.000 Person in 2017. This records an increase from the previous number of 4,065,018.000 Person for 2016. Kenya KE: Population in Largest City data is updated yearly, averaging 1,285,227.500 Person from Dec 1960 (Median) to 2017, with 58 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 4,222,389.000 Person in 2017 and a record low of 292,622.000 Person in 1960. Kenya KE: Population in Largest City data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Kenya – Table KE.World Bank: Population and Urbanization Statistics. Population in largest city is the urban population living in the country's largest metropolitan area.; ; United Nations, World Urbanization Prospects.; ;
The dataset represents an estimated cumulative travel time/cost (raster grid) accessibility map, for Kenya's major cities . The map is an output of the sub-Saharan African Corridor, Mobile Warehouse Location pilot project. Modeled cities are: Nairobi (7,626,752); Mombasa (1,535,899); Nakuru (610,637); Kisumu (567,963) The calculation of cost/time distance surfaces is based on some assumptions: A. Road travel time/cost is computed for large trucks, it is assumed accessibility for large cargo freight vehicles, tertiary and local traffic roads are not included; B. Lake and river navigation are treated as a surface (polygons) not taking into consideration navigation infrastructure (points). The production of the travel time surfaces followed the steps: rasterization of transportation network vector layers and surfaces; production of cost/time layer; computation of a cumulative cost/time layer from cities (Major Cities Accessibility Map).
The raster dataset consists of a 1km score grid for beans storage sites achieved by processing sub-model outputs that characterize logistical factors for crop warehouse location: • Supply: Crop. • Demand: Human population density, Major cities population (national and bordering countries). • Infrastructure/accessibility: main transportation infrastructure. It consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized grids (0 to 100): ("Crop Production" * 0.4) + ("Human Population Density" * 0.2) + ("Port Accessibility" * 0.2) + (“Major Cities Weighted Accessibility” * 0.1) + (”Regional Cities Weighted Accessibility” * 0.1) This 1km resolution raster dataset is part of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis (GIS-MCDA) aimed at the identification of value chain infrastructure sites (optimal location).

It consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized grids (0 to 100): ("Crop Production" * 0.4) + ("Human Population Density" * 0.2) + ("Port Accessibility" * 0.2) + (“Major Cities Weighted Accessibility” * 0.1) + (”Regional Cities Weighted Accessibility” * 0.1) This 1km resolution raster dataset is part of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis (GIS-MCDA) aimed at the identification of value chain infrastructure sites (optimal location).
The dataset represents an estimated cumulative travel time/cost (raster grid) accessibility map, for Kenya's regional major cities . The map is an output of the sub-Saharan African Corridor, Mobile Warehouse Location pilot project version 2. Modeled cities are: Tanzania: Dar es Salam (5,572,776); Mwanza (830,342); Zanzibar (796,903); Dodoma (571,629); Arusha (466,892); Somalia: Mogadiscio (2,275,976); Merka (480,543); Kismaayo (402,691); Ethiopia: Addis-Abeba (4,567,857); Diré Dawa (453,000); South Sudan: Djouba (917,910); Wau (328,651); Uganda: Kampala (4,101,302); Jinja (589,661); The calculation of cost/time distance surfaces is based on some assumptions: A. Road travel time/cost is computed for large trucks, it is assumed accessibility for large cargo freight vehicles, tertiary and local traffic roads are not included; B. Lake and river navigation are treated as a surface (polygons) not taking into consideration navigation infrastructure (points). Regional travel time surfaces production steps are: rasterization of transportation network and surfaces and definition of cell travel time; creation of countries time/cost layers; combining countries into a regional cost layer; computation of a cumulative cost/time accessibility layer from cities (Regional Major Cities Accessibility Map).
