What, Where, How Much ? Downscaling spatial, sectoral, global economic activity

Description

The distribution of economic activity over space is a central question in
economic geography, which can inform policies targeting sustainable
development and regional economic growth, as well as assessing indirect losses
from disruptions in the context of climate risk assessment. In this
work, we develop a novel and flexible method applying Bayesian Hierarchical
Modelling (BHM) to produce estimates of economic activity at high spatial and
sectoral resolution, based on global, open data.
