GRID3 Benin Settlement Extents, Version 01

NOTE: This version of the Benin settlement extents has been superseded by "GRID3 Benin Settlement Extents, Version 01.01", now available here: https://doi.org/10.7916/d8-r2mb-3n26 The dataset consists of settlement extents across Benin, as well as accompanying population estimates for each settlement extent. This data product contains all information contained in the previous GRID3 Benin Settlement Extents, Version 01 Alpha product, with updates. Updates in this version include: a single settlement extent feature class (Alpha contained the same data in three (3) separate feature class layers: BUAs, SSAs & Hamlets), and new population estimate fields ("Population" and "Pop_UN_adj") for each settlement extent . This work has been undertaken as part of the Geo-Referenced Infrastructure and Demographic Data for Development (GRID3) programme. GRID3 works with countries to generate, validate and use geospatial data on population, settlements, infrastructure, and subnational boundaries. For more information, see https://grid3.org/ Keywords: Settlements, Hamlets, Built-up Areas (BUA), Small Settlement Areas (SSA) The programme is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and United Kingdom's Foreign, Commonwealth, Development Office. It is implemented by Flowminder Foundation, WorldPop at the University of Southampton, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia University.

注意：此版本的贝宁居民点范围数据集已被"GRID3 贝宁居民点范围，版本01.01"取代，该新版本现已可通过以下链接获取：https://doi.org/10.7916/d8-r2mb-3n26。本数据集涵盖贝宁全境的居民点范围，以及各居民点对应的配套人口估算数据。本数据产品包含此前GRID3贝宁居民点范围01 Alpha版数据产品的全部信息，并进行了多项更新。本次更新内容包括：采用单一居民点范围要素类（Alpha版本曾通过三个独立的要素类图层存储同类数据：建成区（Built-up Areas, BUA）、小型居民点区（Small Settlement Areas, SSA）与村落），以及为每个居民点范围新增名为"Population"与"Pop_UN_adj"的两个人口估算字段。本数据集是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）计划的成果之一。GRID3与各国合作，生成、验证并使用与人口、居民点、基础设施及次国家边界相关的地理空间数据。更多信息可访问https://grid3.org/。关键词：居民点、村落、建成区（BUA）、小型居民点区（SSA）。本计划由比尔及梅琳达·盖茨基金会与英国外交、联邦与发展办事处资助，由Flowminder基金会、南安普顿大学WorldPop项目、联合国人口基金（United Nations Population Fund, UNFPA）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）共同实施。
