New: LandScan+ combines authoritative infrastructure data * with The World’s Finest Population Distribution Data

November 24, 2015 By GISuser

Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA – November 24, 2015 – East View introduces a new value-added geospatial solution by combining authoritative infrastructure data with the award-winning LandScanTM Global Population Database.

Developed by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and exclusively distributed by East View, LandScan provides the most accurate and reliable ambient population data covering the globe.

LandScan+ is a new opportunity for GIS users to improve their ability to analyze and understand the impact of conditions, surroundings and events on human population dynamics.

Since 1989, East View has acquired a vast archive of global maps and geospatial datasets that can now be paired with LandScan population data.  Here are some examples:

Ukraine 1:50K topographic vector data South Africa 1:50K topographic vector data
  • Rail network
  • Road network
  • Settlements
  • Data period 2008-2011
  • Rail network
  • Road network
  • Power utilities
  • Data period 2006-2010
Vietnam 1:50K topographic vector data Myanmar 1:50K topographic vector data
  • Rail network
  • Road network
  • Power utilities
  • Hydro network
  • Cultural sites
  • Data period 2009-2010
  • Rail network
  • Road network
  • Power utilities
  • Settlements
  • Data period 2013

* These datasets were not used in the creation of LandScan. The images below represent the LandScan Vietnam population data and the primary road network in Vietnam that are combined to generate the LandScan+ mashup.
