Gridded population estimates for Ukraine using UN COD-PS estimates 2020, version 1.0

These data were produced by the WorldPop Research Group at the University of Southampton. These data include gridded estimates of population at approximately 100m and 1km resolution for 2020, along with estimates of the number of people belonging to individual age-sex groups. These results were produced using Subnational Population Statistics 2020 for Ukraine provided in the Common Operational Dataset on Population Statistics (COD-PS) and ORNL LandScan HD for Ukraine 2022 settlement layer. The datasets are produced using the "top-down" method, with both the unconstrained and constrained top-down disaggregation methods used to produce two different datasets. The modelling work and geospatial data processing was led by Bondarenko M., Sorichetta A. and Leasure DR. Oversight was provided by Andrew J. Tatem. Attila N. Lazar and Édith Darin provided internal WorldPop peer reviews that helped to improve the results and documentation.
