Hi All, We built a quick tool to calculate the population of any area in Nepal <http://devseed.com/worldpop/>. Just draw the bounding box of the area that you want to assess and we return the total population and population density of that area. We hope that it can be helpful in planning response efforts.
The tool uses high resolution population information of Nepal from Worldpop <http://www.worldpop.org.uk/>. If you prefer, you can download the foll dataset from Worldpop <http://www.worldpop.org.uk/data/summary/?contselect=Asia&countselect=Nepal&typeselect=Population> . *A few caveats -* It currently *only works in Chrome*. This is an unofficial beta. Expect bugs and frequent changes. The code is open source; we welcome forks and contributions and feedback on github <https://github.com/developmentseed/worldpop/>. Thanks, Anand -- Anand Thakker Developer at Development Seed @anandthakker <https://twitter.com/anandthakker> on Twitter & Github
