Accessibility: Travel Time-Cost to Major Cities (Tanzania - ~ 1Km)
Accessibility to major cities dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis, computed for the 10 largest cities (>200k habitants) in the country, normalized from 0 to 100, where 0 corresponds to the lowest city accessibility. The following cities are included:
City - Population
Dar es Salaam - 4,364,541
Mwanza - 706,453
Zanzibar - 501,459
Arusha - 416,442
Mbeya - 385,279
Morogoro - 305,840
Tanga - 221,127
Kigoma - 215,458
Dodoma - 213,636
Songea - 203,309
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 (or optimal location)
