    The 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). Access to finance and roads are defined using a linear distance threshold: • Banks - approx. 10km buffer radius. • Major roads - approx. 2km buffer radius. Access to IT is characterized by applying the mobile broadband coverage map. 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. 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 (optimal location).

    The raster dataset consists of a 500m score grid for fruits storage location achieved by processing sub-model outputs that characterize logistical factors for selected crop warehouse location: • Supply: Fruits. • Demand: Human population density, Major cities population (national and bordering countries). • Infrastructure/accessibility: main transportation infrastructure. It consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized grids (0 to 100): ("Crop Production" * 0.4) + ("Human Population Density" * 0.2) + ("Major Cities Accessibility" * 0.2) + (“Asset Wealth” * 0.1) + ("Major Ports Accessibility" * 0.1). 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 (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 and electricity is characterized by applying the mobile broadband coverage map and the Atlas AI Electrification map.

    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).

    The raster dataset consists of a 500m score grid for rest of crops storage location, 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 that characterize logistical factors for selected crop warehouse locations: • Supply: Crop. • Demand: Human population density, Major cities population (national and bordering countries). • Infrastructure/accessibility: main transportation infrastructure. MapSPAM defines rest of crops as all individual other crops (e.g. Spices, tree nuts, other sugar crops, mate, rubber). The purpose of this MCDA is to identify optional locations for cashew nuts and they are under the tree nuts category. It consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized grids (0 to 100): ("Crop Production" * 0.4) + ("Human Population Density" * 0.2) + (“Major Cities Accessibility” * 0.1) + (”Regional Cities Accessibility” *0.1 ) + (”Ports Accessibility” *0.1 ) + (”Asset Wealth” *0.1 )
