🌍 New research in Nature Cities uses high-resolution WorldPop data to reveal demographic changes hidden by national averages across 10,000+ cities worldwide.

The study shows how migration and natural growth shape urban populations differently, helping guide infrastructure and climate resilience investments where they're needed most. 📊🏙️

🚀 The future of municipal data is direct and seamless!

We are kicking off development for the #DUVA to #KomMonitor interface. This vital connection makes municipal statistical time series data instantly available for spatio-temporal analysis and visualization. Minimize data redundancy and strengthen cross-departmental planning for smarter #communities

I think enough time has passed, that I can finally share what I made 'from garbage data" in public!

I miss working on projects like this, and having to not share them reduces my chances of being hired to work with data like this...ugh.

Anyway, when most of my work is about finding and sharing patterns....this project was all about helping folks see how chaotic an existing system is: https://www.patreon.com/posts/102234094

WorldPop visited the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC), meeting with the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL), Demography, and Urban & Territorial Analysis teams.

We explored opportunities to improve comparability, reduce duplication, and strengthen harmonised global population and settlement data.

Looking forward to continued collaboration.
