Dakar population estimates at 100x100m spatial resolution - grid layer - Dasymetric mapping

This dataset contains the a raster layer with the population estimates obtained using a dasymetric mapping procedure (top-down approach). For a detailed description of the methodology, please refer to the following paper:
