Poverty Mapping Project: Global Subnational Infant Mortality Rates

The Poverty Mapping Project: Global Subnational Infant Mortality Rates data set consists of estimates of infant mortality rates for the year 2000. The infant mortality rate for a region or country is defined as the number of children who die before their first birthday for every 1,000 live births. The data products include a shapefile (vector data) of rates, grids (raster data) of rates (per 10,000 live births in order to preserve precision in integer format), births (the rate denominator) and deaths (the rate numerator), and a tabular data set of the same and associated data. Over 10,000 national and subnational Units are represented in the tabular and grid data sets, while the shapefile uses approximately 1,000 Units in order to protect the intellectual property of source data sets for Brazil, China, and Mexico. This data set is produced by the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN).

贫困映射项目：全球子国家别婴儿死亡率数据集收录了2000年婴儿死亡率的估计值。某地区或国家的婴儿死亡率定义为每千名活产婴儿中，在出生后第一年内死亡的婴儿数量。数据产品包括死亡率（矢量数据）的shapefile，以及按每10,000活产婴儿计算的死亡率网格（栅格数据，以整数格式保持精度），出生数（分母）和死亡数（分子），以及相同数据和相关数据的表格数据集。表格和网格数据集中包含了超过10,000个国家和子国家单位，而shapefile大约使用了1,000个单位，以保护巴西、中国和墨西哥源数据集的知识产权。此数据集由哥伦比亚大学国际地球科学信息网络中心（CIESIN）制作。
