Description
Risk assessment indicators for Gabon aggregated at administrative level 2, derived from HeiGIT's GAIA Pipeline. The dataset includes layers for access to services, facilities, coping capacity, demographics, rural population, vulnerability, and flood exposure. It was last updated on 2026-04-13 and integrates data from sources like WorldPop, OpenStreetMap, and Google Earth Engine.
Use Cases
Perform structured flood risk assessments based on flood exposure and vulnerability indicators.
Analyze population access to critical services like education and healthcare based on travel time and distance columns.
Model district-level coping capacity by combining access to services and facilities data.
Assess demographic vulnerability factors such as the population of children, elderly, and females.
Support disaster risk and resilience analysis with integrated environmental, infrastructure, and hazard-related data.
Strengths
Includes seven distinct indicator layers covering access, facilities, coping, demographics, and flood exposure.
Aggregated at a standardized administrative level (ADM2) using HDX COD-AB boundaries.
Integrates multiple established open data sources including WorldPop, OpenStreetMap, and Google Earth Engine.
Limitations
Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
Column-level documentation for the rural_population layer is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
