A population grid, in the context of geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial analysis, refers to a spatial data representation of population data that is organized in a grid or raster format. This format divides a geographic area into a regular grid of cells or pixels, where each cell contains information about the population residing within that cell. Statistical population grid data are statistics geographically referenced to a system of (usually squared) grid cells in a grid net with Cartesian coordinates:
- Population grids are powerful tools for studying the interrelationships between human activities and the environment
- Population grids are a valuable tool for various applications, including demographic analysis, urban planning, disaster management, and resource allocation.
