Effectiveness of remotely Sensed Built Areas for Constraining and Modelling Gridded Population Estimates - Script Samples and data

These data present the effectiveness of three different high-resolution built area datasets for producing gridded population estimates through the dasymetric disaggregation of census counts in Haiti, Malawi, Madagascar, Nepal, Rwanda, and Thailand. Modeling techniques include a binary dasymetric redistribution, random forest with dasymetric component, and a hybrid of the previous two.
