popmex

The goal of the popmex package is to provide spatial population dataset at different levels of resolution.

  • hdx_pop2023. Population Density for 400m H3 Hexagons of Mexico for 2023

  • hdx_pop2022. Population Density for 400m H3 Hexagons of Mexico for

  • hdx_pop2021. Population Density for 400m H3 Hexagons of Mexico for

  • LandScan. 2003-2024.

LandScan (https://landscan.ornl.gov) is a globally recognized, R&D100-winning population data platform developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). Its datasets provide human population distribution estimates down to 100 meter grid resolution. LandScan supports disaster response, humanitarian aid, environmental analysis, and urban planning by providing insights into where people live and how they move.

  • pop2020. Population by municipality from ITER 2020.

  • pop2010. Population by municipality from ITER 2010.

The population data by total number and sex for each municipality were obtained from the dataset of territorial indicators known as ITER (Indicadores Territoriales), which is a database derived from the 2020 Population and Housing Census generated by Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía of Mexico (INEGI).
