Replication Data for: A spatially-explicit sensitivity analysis of urban definitions: uncovering implicit assumptions in the Degree of Urbanisation

Description

This repository contains the R code and data needed to replicate the analysis in our paper "A spatially-explicit sensitivity analysis of urban definitions: uncovering implicit assumptions in the Degree of Urbanisation". All code is organized in computational notebooks, arranged sequentially in the code folder. The analyses mainly rely on the open-source data products provided by the Global Human Settlement Layer. Other data sets needed to reproduce the analyses are included in the data folder. The resulting grid classifications of the 1458 alternative realisations of the Degree of Urbanisation are included in the results/grid_classifications folder. The metadata (e.g. criterion settings) associated with each realisation is included in the data/criterion_ID.csv file. The final sensitivity map and all grid classifications are also visualised on this web-platform. For further details, please refer to the enclosed README file and the original publication.
