    The raster dataset represents top location score areas suitable for vegetables storage, filtered by exclusive criteria: access to finance, distance to major roads and access to IT (mobile broadband connection). The location score is achieved by processing sub-model outputs characterizing logistical factors for crop warehouse siting: Supply, demand, Infrastructure/accessibility. The top score is selected/clipped using the exclusive criteria. Access to finance and roads are defined using a linear distance threshold: • Banks - approx. 20km (0.18 degree) buffer radius. • Major roads - approx. 2km (0.018 degree) buffer radius. Access to IT is characterized applying the mobile broadband coverage map. This 1km resolution raster dataset is produced under the scope 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).

    The 500 m raster dataset represents selected top location score areas filtered by exclusive criteria: access to finance, distance to major roads, access to IT, and distance to urban areas. The layer was produced under the scope of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis for value chain infrastructure location. The location score is achieved by processing sub-model outputs characterizing logistical factors for the slaughterhouse facilities siting: Demand, Supply, Infrastructure/accessibility. Access to finance, distance to roads, and urban areas are defined using a linear distance threshold: • Banks - approx. 10km • Major roads - approx. 2km • Access to IT is characterized by applying the mobile broadband coverage map.

    The 1km raster dataset represents top location score areas suitable for cassava storage filtered by exclusive criteria: access to finance, distance to major roads and access to IT (mobile broadband connection). The location score is achieved by processing sub-model outputs characterizing logistical factors for crop warehouse siting: Supply, demand, Infrastructure/accessibility. The location score from 0 to 100 is then obtained through a simple arithmetic weighted sum of the normalized/scaled grids. The top 99th percentile is selected/clipped using the exclusive criteria. Access to finance and roads are defined using a linear distance threshold: • Banks - approx. 10km (0.08 degree) buffer radius. • Major roads - approx. 2km (0.018 degree) buffer radius. Access to IT is characterized applying the mobile broadband coverage map. 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).

    The raster dataset consists of a 500m score grid for dairy processing industry facilities siting, produced under the scope of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis for value chain infrastructure location. The analysis is based on buffalo dairy production intensification potential defined using crop production, livestock production systems, and buffalo distribution. The score is achieved by processing sub-model outputs that characterize logistical factors: 1. Supply - Feed, livestock production systems, buffalo distribution. 2. Demand - Human population density, large cities, urban areas. 3. Infrastructure - Transportation network (accessibility) 4. Poverty. It consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized grids (0 to 100): ("Crop Production" * 0.25) + ("Human Population Density" * 0.1) + (“Major Cities Accessibility” * 0.1) + (“ Accessibility to ports” * 0.1) + ( "Poverty" * 0.1) + (”Dairy Intensification” * 0.35).
