These layers present the application of the Degree of Urbanisation stage I methodology recommended by UN Statistical Commission to the global population grid generated by the JRC in the epochs 1975-2030 (5 years timestep).
They derive from the GHS-SMOD - R2023A.
The layers have been generated by integration of built-up surface extracted from Landsat and Sentinel-2 image data processing (GHS-BUILT-S R2023), and population data derived from the CIESIN GPW v4.11 (GHS-POP R2023).
The dataset is part the Global Human Settlement Layer, that provide global, high-resolution, multi-temporal gridded data on built-up environment (built-up surface, built-up volume, residential vs. non-residential function), resident population, and settlement classification by the UN-recommended methodology “degree of urbanisation”. The complete information about the GHSL main products can be found in the GHSL Data Package 2023 report.

This product is an update of the data released in 2022 based on the updates of the GHS-BUILT-S and GHS-POP. The Settlement Model is provided at the detailed level (Second Level - L2). First level can be obtained aggregating L2.
This data represents the total built-up volume between 1975 and 2030 in 5 year intervals over cells of 1x1 km size.
It derives from the GHS-BUILT-V - R2023A spatial raster dataset, that depicts the distribution of built-up volumes, expressed as number of cubic metres. The data report about the total built-up volume and the built-up volume allocated to dominant non-residential (NRES) uses.
The dataset is part the Global Human Settlement Layer , Global, high-resolution, multi-temporal gridded data on built-up environment (built-up surface, built-up volume, residential vs. non-residential function), resident population, and settlement classification by the UN-recommended methodology “degree of urbanisation”.

This data represents the distribution of human population between 1975 and 2030 in 5 year intervals over cells of 1x1 km size.
It derives from the GHS-POP - R2023A. Residential population estimates between 1975 and 2020 in 5-year intervals and projections to 2025 and 2030 derived from CIESIN GPWv4.11 were disaggregated from census or administrative units to grid cells, informed by the distribution, volume, and classification of built-up as mapped in the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) global layer per corresponding epoch.
