The "Database of Densely Populated‒Informal Settlements (DPIS)" is a comprehensive repository of geospatial data and analysis results related to densely populated‒informal settlements in urban areas. This database aims to contribute to the understanding of informal housing and its implications for sustainable urban development in various regions.The dataset contains valuable information on DPISs, which are typically characterized by high population densities, dilapidated structures, and disorganized urbanization. The database includes shapefiles and associated attributes, derived through machine-learning methods and geospatial analysis.Researchers and urban planners can access and utilize this database to investigate the spatial distribution, characteristics, and dynamics of DPISs in different cities and regions. The data can be utilized for sustainable urban planning, social welfare programs, and policy-making to address the challenges posed by informal settlements and promote inclusive and resilient urban development.
