Accessibility: Travel time-cost to major cities (Bangladesh - ~ 500 m)

Accessibility to major cities dataset is modeled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis, computed for the largest cities (>500k habitants) in the country.

This 500m resolution raster dataset is part of FAO's Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis (GIS-MCDA) aimed at the identification of value chain infrastructure sites (or optimal location).
