DATA Beta

This data was used in Map 7.3 in Nature's Benefits in Kenya: An Atlas of Ecosystems and Human Well-Being. These data combine detailed crop information from 5,747 aerial photos for a growing season in 1997, each providing a sample point of detailed crop information. These samples were averaged...

This data was used in Map 1.5 and Map 4.7 in Nature's Benefits in Kenya: An Atlas of Ecosystems and Human Well-Being. Species numbers are aggregated using a ""tropical livestock unit"" (TLU) (which is equivalent to an animal weight of 250 kilograms) to grid cells of 5x5 km and then averaged by...

Calculations of milk production were done by assessing the number of dairy cattle in an administrative area, and extrapolating out liters of milk per area. Demand for milk was calculated by estimating the milk needs per person, and applying that number to the population density of each area....

The poverty indicators produced by the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) are based on household consumption expenditures, including both food and a range of nonfood items such as education, transport, health, and rent. Households are defined as poor when their total expenditures fall below...
