Urban Public Transport Accessibility in Haiti Based on Walking Distance

An estimated share of the urban population in Haiti with access to a public transport stop within a walking distance of 500 or 1000 meters along the street network. The dataset was published by the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) Data and Analytics Section and was last updated on May 6, 2026. It is available in CSV and XLSX formats under the PDDL-1.0 license.

Use Cases

• Assess urban transport equity based on estimated population access shares.
• Model service gaps for low and high capacity public transport systems based on walking distance thresholds.
• Support infrastructure planning by identifying areas beyond the 500m and 1000m access thresholds.

Strengths

• Data is provided by the authoritative United Nations Human Settlements Programme.
• Specific walking distance thresholds (500m and 1000m) are defined for different transport system capacities.
• Last update date is precisely recorded as 2026-05 06 22:29:38.751961.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description does not specify the temporal coverage or exact calculation methodology.
