Additionally, the project aims to assist policy makers, development agencies, and the poor themselves in designing interventions to reduce poverty. The Small Area Estimates of Poverty and Inequality dataset consists of consumption-based poverty, inequality and related measures for subnational administrative units in approximately twenty countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. These measures are derived on a country-level basis from a combination of census and survey data using small area estimates techniques. The collection of data have been compiled, integrated and standardized from the original data providers into a unified spatially referenced and globally consistent dataset. The data products include shapefiles (vector data), tabular datasets (csv format), and centroids (csv file with latitude and longitude of a geographic unit and associated poverty estimates). Additionally, a data catalog (xls format) containing detailed information and documentation is provided. This dataset is produced by the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) in collaboration with a number of external data providers. 16647 Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia University. 26.6319399868357 92.6736600000004 http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/povmap/datasets/ds_nat_all.jsp 20.5760799858008 88.0283400000008 Small Area Estimates of Poverty and Inequality by municipality, Bangladesh, 2008 2008-03-01T12:00:00Z --- [] 18224 true complete Bangladesh area estimate global inequality mapping poverty project small the 2009-10-01T20:17:00Z williambenjaminiv williambenjaminiv 0 http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/povmap/ 2009-10-01T18:01:42Z 2009-10-01T18:01:43Z The Global Poverty Mapping Project seeks to enhance current understanding of the global distribution of poverty and the geographic and biophysical conditions of where the poor live.
