Classification of the degree of urbanization of the Andalusian population in statistical mesh.

Description

The classification of the degree of urbanization of the Andalusian population in statistical mesh elaborated by the Institute of Statistics and Cartography of Andalusia, is the first step to obtain information of level 1 and 2 of the degree of urbanization (DEGURBA) of the territory of Andalusia. This is a regular grid of 1km x 1km cells to which, based on the georeferencing of the Andalusian population carried out in the spatial distribution of the population for the last available year (2020), the methodology described by EUROSTAT has been applied following the methodological manual ‘Applying the Degree of Urbanisation -2021 edition’, to assign the typology referred to level 1 and 2 of the degree of urbanisation, based on criteria of geographical contiguity, density and population thresholds. The regular mesh of uniform cells of 250m side with population is also shown (following the INSPIRE directive) and aims to debug the previous mesh of 1kmx1km by removing from each cell of 1 kmx1km those cells of 250m side integrated in the cell and that do not contain population according to the population mesh of the reference year. In addition, in order to analyze the evolution of population intensity and its degree of urbanization from a greater temporal perspective, level 1 of the degree of urbanization has been calculated for the year 2002. The website of the Institute of Statistics and Cartography of Andalusia offers a visualization service: "Classification of the Degree of Urbanization" that allows its interactive consultation https://www.juntadeandalucia.es/institutodeestadisticaycartografia/gradourbanizacion/index.htm
