GRID3 Togo Settlement Extents, Version 01.01

Settlement extents are polygons representing areas where there is likely a human settlement based on the presence of buildings detected in satellite imagery. Settlement extents are not meant to represent the boundaries of an administrative unit or locality. A single settlement extent may be made up of multiple localities, especially in urban areas. Each settlement extent has an associated population estimate. Provided is information on the common operational boundary that the extent fully resides within along with their associated place codes (PCodes). The data are in geodatabase format and consist of a single-feature class. This data product contains all information contained in the previous “GRID3 Togo Settlement Extents, Version 01” product, with updates. Updates in this version include: revised terms of use and license, Boundary and Place Codes for each settlement extent. This work has been undertaken as part of the Geo-Referenced Infrastructure and Demographic Data for Development (GRID3) programme. The programme is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the United Kingdom's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office. It is implemented by the Flowminder Foundation, WorldPop at the University of Southampton, the United Nations Population Fund, and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia University.

居民地范围（Settlement extents）为多边形要素，代表基于卫星影像中探测到的建筑物分布所判定的存在人类聚居活动的区域。居民地范围并非用于表示行政单元或行政属地的边界。单个居民地范围可由多个行政属地组成，在城市区域中尤为显著。每个居民地范围均关联有人口估算值。本次数据集同时提供该居民地范围完全归属的通用作业边界及其关联的属地编码（Place Codes, PCodes）。
该数据采用地理数据库（Geodatabase）格式，仅包含单一要素类。本数据产品包含此前“GRID3 多哥居民地范围 版本01”的全部信息，并完成了更新优化。本版本的更新内容包括：修订后的使用条款与许可协议，以及每个居民地范围对应的边界与属地编码。
本项目为“面向发展的地理参考基础设施与人口统计数据（Geo-Referenced Infrastructure and Demographic Data for Development, GRID3）”计划的组成部分。该计划由比尔及梅琳达·盖茨基金会与英国外交、联邦及发展事务部资助，执行机构包括Flowminder基金会、南安普敦大学世界人口项目（WorldPop）、联合国人口基金，以及哥伦比亚大学国际地球科学信息网络中心（Center for International Earth Science Information Network, CIESIN）。
