Embodiments relate to a computer-implemented method comprising a process of receiving geographic data corresponding to a geographic area, receiving population data corresponding to a population of the geographic area, and generating a distribution of the population over the geographic area based on characteristics of geographic features of the geographic area. Characteristics of the geographic features can be classified into one or more usage categories corresponding to an estimated populated density associated with the particular geographic feature. A grid can be generated to overlay the geographic area, and the distribution of the population to an area encapsulated within each of the plurality of grid cells can be interpolated based on the usage categories of the geographic features and a position of the geographic features with respect to each of the plurality of grid cells. |
