Major Cities Demand (Tanzania - ~ 1Km)
Major cities demand dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis and weighted using the population/market size dimension as a measure of demand. Individual cumulative travel time/cost maps were produced for the country’s 10 largest cities (>200k habitants). The final market/demand layer consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized (0-100) city accessibility grids.
The following values were assumed for major cities population of Tanzania:
City - Population - Weight %
Dar es Salaam - 4,364,541 - 0.579
Mwanza - 706,453 - 0.094
Zanzibar - 501,459 - 0.067
Arusha - 416,442 - 0.055
Mbeya - 385,279 - 0.051
Morogoro - 305,840 - 0.041
Tanga - 221,127 - 0.029
Kigoma - 215,458 - 0.029
Dodoma - 213,636 - 0.028
Songea - 203,309 - 0.027
This 1km 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 (optimal location).
