World Bank Group
L o a d i n g
The World Bank Group has set two goals for the world to achieve by 2030: (i) End extreme poverty by decreasing the percentage of people living on less than $1.90 a day to no more than 3%, and (ii) promote shared prosperity by fostering the income growth of the bottom 40% for every country. The World Bank is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world.

- This dataset contains the GIS data used in the report, "Global Photovoltaic Power Potential by Country" generated by Solargis (https://solargis.com), with funding provided by the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP). The study summarizes global solar resource and PV power potential on a country and regional basis. Analysis is based on Solargis's high-resolution datasets, and GIS mask layers which are downloadable via the 'resources' tab. A country comparison spreadsheet is also provided as an additional download, which provides indicators of PV power potential for all countries as described in the study. The study provides: • Ranking and comparison of countries and regions according to their PV potential; • Approximate levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) relevant to current PV projects; • Cross-correlation with the socio-economic indicators relevant to PV development.

- Developed by SOLARGIS and provided by the Global Solar Atlas (GSA), this data resource contains terrain elevation above sea level (ELE) in [m a.s.l.] covering the globe. Data is provided in a geographic spatial reference (EPSG:4326). The resolution (pixel size) of solar resource data (GHI, DIF, GTI, DNI) is 9 arcsec (nominally 250 m), PVOUT and TEMP 30 arcsec (nominally 1 km) and OPTA 2 arcmin (nominally 4 km). The data is hyperlinked under 'resources' with the following characeristics: ELE GISdata (GeoTIFF) Data format: GEOTIFF File size : 826.8 MB There are two temporal representation of solar resource and PVOUT data available: • Longterm yearly/monthly average of daily totals (LTAym_AvgDailyTotals) • Longterm average of yearly/monthly totals (LTAym_YearlyMonthlyTotals) Both type of data are equivalent, you can select the summarization of your preference. The relation between datasets is described by simple equations: • LTAy_YearlyTotals = LTAy_DailyTotals * 365.25 • LTAy_MonthlyTotals = LTAy_DailyTotals * Number_of_Days_In_The_Month *For individual country or regional data downloads please see: https://globalsolaratlas.info/download (use the drop-down menu to select country or region of interest) *For data provided in AAIGrid please see: https://globalsolaratlas.info/download/world. For more information and terms of use, please, read metadata, provided in PDF and XML format for each data layer in a download file. For other data formats, resolution or time aggregation, please, visit Solargis website. Data can be used for visualization, further processing, and geo-analysis in all mainstream GIS software with raster data processing capabilities (such as open source QGIS, commercial ESRI ArcGIS products and others).1Licence not specifiedalmost 2 years ago
- Maps with wind speed, wind rose and wind power density potential in Taiwan. The GIS data stems from the Global Wind Atlas (http://globalwindatlas.info/). GIS data is available as JSON and CSV.

- The MTF survey is a global baseline survey on household access to electricity and clean cooking, which goes beyond the binary approach to look at access as a spectrum of service levels experienced by households. Resources included are raw data, codebook, questionnaires, sampling strategy document, and country diagnostic report. Formats include zip file (which includes raw data sets of dta format), excel spreadsheet, pdf, and docx.1Licence not specifiedalmost 2 years ago
- Data collected and prepared for a project of the World Bank Group Power Transmission Project in Support of the Energy Sector Reform & Development Program in Ukraine. This data is based on a digitized PDF map, and so is intended as a schematic of rough locations of the power network. It is not suitable for applications requiring high accuracy. The PDF map can be viewed on the last page of report attached.

- This dataset contains a population cluster (shapefile) of Benin with the electrification scenarios. The scenarios assess the effect of different roll-out plans, demand levels, diesel costs, grid electricity costs, PV costs, and different types of restrictions or limitations on grid expansion. Results are presented for 2025 and 2030.1Licence not specifiedalmost 2 years ago

- Plan data collected and prepared for a project of the World Bank Group in July 2016. Includes existing transmission network only. This data is based on a digitized PDF map, and so is intended as a schematic of rough locations of the power network. It is not suitable for applications requiring high accuracy.1Licence not specifiedalmost 2 years ago
- This raster file represents a land cover classification in Santa Ana based off satellite imagery from February 22, 2015. This land cover classification was used in the following report: Mapping Land Cover in Secondary Cities in Central America. This work was initiated as an analytical effort to fill a gap on spatial form of secondary cities. While this is an independent output, this work is tightly linked to the work done under the Central America Urbanization Review. The analysis here described, was used as an input in the definition of urban agglomerations used in the Urbanization Review. The detailed analysis on secondary cities is seen as a complement to the work carried out in the Urbanization Review, in that it zooms into what is happening within a set of cities. The Urbanization Review instead provides a broader look at the system of cities in Central America, highlighting the key bottlenecks the regions faces in moving toward more inclusive, productive, and resilient cities.
