and urban population from HHs. For each country: = ,, =1 + ,, =1 t survey year, j sub-national administrative unit, n number of sub-national units per country 2. Multiplied the 5 arc-minute grid cell resolution CIESIN/GRUMP 2000 population density data (cellrate00,r , cellrate00,u ) by the proportion of population in each grid cell c (POPratec ), and by the sub- national population data (POPj,r,t and POPj,u,t ) resulting in population values per grid cell at the survey year (POPc,t ) for both rural and urban population: ,, = ∗ 00, ∗ ,, ,, = ∗ 00, ∗ ,, 3. Re-calculated each grid cell as in step 2 by multiplying the proportion of population in each grid cell by WDI 2005 rural and urban population data (WDI2005,r , WDI2005,u ): ,2005, = ,, ∗ 2005, ,2005, = ,, ∗ 2005, Total population per grid cell in 2005 is the sum of corresponding rural and urban population: = ,2005, + ,2005,
