Dataset description

This dataset includes impedance surfaces, cost surface outputs, a health facilities datasets, and a roads dataset (consisting of OpenStreetMap and manually delineated data) for the Barotse Floodplain, Zambia. The health facilities dataset and roads dataset are produced for the year 2024/25. The impedance surfaces and cost surface outputs are produced for a baseline scenario (2000s) and three future decades (2030s, 2050s, and 2070s) under three SSP scenarios (SSP 1-2.6, 3-7.0, and 5-8.5).
