DEFINITION
International Organization for Standardization, three-letter country code: three character code unique to each country. Continent Name in English: continent to which each country belongs (United Nations classification of continents). United Nations Continent Code: numeric code, unique for each continent. United Nations Country Code: numeric code, unique for each country. United Nations Country Code (long): numeric code, unique for each country. United Nations Regional Divisions: sets of countries aggregated to form named regions. International Organization for Standardization, two-letter country code: two-character code unique to each country. United Nations Statistics Division code: numeric code unique to each country. Measure of the effective resolution of administrative units in kilometers; calculated as the square root of the land area divided by the number of administrative units. Average population per administrative unit; 2000 population estimate divided by the number of units. Land area in square kilometers from the United Nations Statistics Division. Level of administrative united used for GPW gridding; the administrative unit levels are categorized as follows: 0=country, 1=state/province, 2=county (or equivalent), 3= sub-county units (e.g., census units such as tracts or subdivisions), 4=local statistical area, and 5=sub-locations. Note that some data have lower levels available (e.g., India) but they were not always used. Name association with level one administrative units: name assigned by the data provider. Name association with level two administrative units: name assigned by the data provider. Name association with level three administrative units: name assigned by the data provider. Name association with level four administrative units: name assigned by the data provider. Name association with level five administrative units: name assigned by the data provider. Total number of administrative units at the level used: sum of the unique administrative units (not unique polygons, units may be split across polygons) at the level used for gridding GPW v3. First year of population figures used to adjust data to 1990 and 1995 estimates. Where only one year of population estimates was obtained, that date is given in RefYearLast and this field is left empty. Latest year of population figures used to adjust data to 1990 and 1995 estimates. Where only one year of population figures exists, it is referenced here and UN figures were used to adjust the data to 1990 and 1995. Population estimate for 1990 based on figures produced by national statistical agency (or similar institutions): the sum of administrative unit population estimates for each country, after interpolation or extrapolation to 1990 (if necessary). All figures are rounded and expressed per thousand. Population estimate for 1995 based on figures produced by national statistical agency (or similar institutions): the sum of administrative unit population estimates for each country, after interpolation or extrapolation to 1995 (if necessary). All figures are rounded and expressed per thousand.

Percent difference between country estimate from source data and the UN estimate for 1990. This percentage is calculated based on the difference between P90E and UN_P90; it was used to adjust the administrative unit population counts from each data provider so that they summed to the same total as the UN estimate for producing the UN adjusted population grids. Percent difference between country estimate from source data and the UN estimate for 1995. This percentage is calculated based on the difference between P95E and UN_P95; it was used to adjust the administrative unit population counts from each data provider so that they summed to the same total as the UN estimate for producing the UN adjusted population grids. Percent difference between country estimate from source data and the UN estimate for 2000. This percentage is calculated based on the difference between P00E and UN_P00; it was used to adjust the administrative unit population counts from each data provider so that they summed to the same total as the UN estimate for producing the UN adjusted population grids.

Population data were extrapolated to target years using growth rates derived from United Nations national level estimates and projections. A population growth rate was calculated between 1990 and 1993 to extrapolate to the target years of 1995 and 2000.

The five units are merged and the the total population of Vogtlandkreis estimated by multiplying the available population five times.

Thus, a District (administrative level 1) growth rate between 1991 and 2001 was usedrate to CEPAL's department level growth from 1971 to 1995 applied to 1995 population project to target years. The following units are merged and their populations aggregated: In the Region del Atlantico Population dataAutonoma at the canton level are Sur only available for year 2001, thus arrondissement-level growth rates (19882001), were used to project the cantonlevel population to the target years.

A population growth rate was calculated between the years 1986-1997 and used to extrapolate population data to target years. To accomodate recent boundary divisions, the population of Nykvarn and Soedertaelje are aggregated to form one unit with the name of Soedertaelje. A population growth rate was calculated between 1991 and 2001 to extrapolate to target years. Recent boundary divisions were accomodated and populations from old divisions were systematically attributed to the new divisions.
