🛰️📊We're piloting AI and satellite data with Malawi’s NSO to update census areas ahead of 2028. Boosting accuracy while cutting costs. #DataForDevelopment #FundedByFCDO #Malawi #Census2028 #InnovationInStats 🔗 https://t.co/YxddcmeFuY

🚀 We’re thrilled to support @PBSofficialpak & @UNFPA in modernising survey sampling in #Pakistan! From AI to satellite data, our training boosts capacity for smarter & more inclusive data - key for disaster response & national planning. #DataForGood https://t.co/ntvK5C4rzb

🚀 Exciting news! In partnership with the UK’s ONS & funded by FCDO, we're introducing automated mapping tech to Malawi’s National Statistics Office. Streamlining the 2028 #census for fast, cost-efficient, and accurate enumeration. #DataForGood #Malawi https://t.co/bZa7mtqZH3

We are excited to be co-creating the future of AI-powered geospatial intelligence through a transformational knowledge partnership with @WorldPopProject and geospatial research hub at @unisouthampton. Over the last 3 days, we explored how the fusion of AI, human geography, and

🚀 A true honour to welcome Professor Dame Wendy Hall to WorldPop! We had an inspiring & wide-ranging conversation on using AI to fill global demographic data gaps🌍- plus insights into UK data sharing initiatives & the power of interdisciplinary collaboration 💡🔬 #AIforGood

We are excited to announce the release of our new World Bank Policy Research Working Paper, which presents a practical and cost-effective approach for creating a digital national sampling frame in #Armenia: https://t.co/3xrhFqsctn #DigitizedSamplingFrame #PreEA #householdSurvey

The 5th #UNDataForum hosted over 3,000 leaders and experts from different sectors to talk about what needs to be done to improve the world. Excellent attendance during our session; more geospatial and technology innovations are needed to address the global challenges

We are at the @UNDataForum in Medellin, Colombia this week! The team will be talking about our work on global population mapping, geospatial tools for supporting survey/census design, and small area population estimation for health campaigns and disaster response (see video).

Our session is (TA1.7) Census and Survey Technology Advancements: CAWI and Intelligent Geospatial Tools (preEA) Time and Date: November 14, 2024, 14:45–15:45 UTC/GMT -5

Thanks for organising this. It was an excellent opportunity to present our work on how innovative geospatial techniques can improve data collection on forced displacement @WorldPopProject @jointdatacenter @UoSGeogEnv @FCDOGovUK @ONS @Refugees #ForcedDisplacement #DataInnovation

New @WorldPopProject paper in collaboration with @UniofOxford and @Refugees on applying machine learning techniques and various satellite-derived covariates to map refugees at fine resolution. A strategy that can maximise outreach to populations at risk https://t.co/4ILqKOH5J6

Dev-Afrique Development Advisors have published a new report that documents and assesses the impact that WorldPop's work has had over recent years. The impact assessment report can be downloaded here: https://t.co/RmL2j1DAoe

👀In Southampton? Lookout for WorldPop billboards popping up! 👀

Benin is about to embark on its first-ever digital census, therefore I'm proud to be a part of this historic event. They have used all of our tools, which has improved accuracy and reduced costs. @WorldPopProject @insbenin @unfpa_benin #preEATool @UoSGeogEnv

Last week I represented @WorldPopProject in a @PopDevUNFPA technical workshop on Learning and Adapting lessons on Baseline Population, displacement and refugee data interoperability in South Africa. #interoperability #opendata #geospatialData #GriddedPopulation

At #Geopalooza 4.0 organised by @gatesfoundation @WorldPopProject is well-represented. For more information about possible collaboration on our many open gespatial datasets and methods for your applications, please get in contact with us. #population #health #samplingframe

Pleased to be invited by @ucl to be an external examiner for a PhD student. Interesting work on Can data from space address critical data on Earth? Fruitful discussion and very well-deserved outputs #PhD #Viva #MinorCorrections @CASAUCL @WorldPopProject #geospatialdata #opendata
