Estimating local GDP everywhere
Local GDP measures are crucial for economic research but are often unreliable or unavailable, particularly in developing countries. Meanwhile, traditional proxies like nightlights have limitations. This column uses a variety of remote sensing and emissions data to estimate local GDP using machine learning. The estimates successfully portray the cross-section and dynamics of local GDP well, and as such will be useful for carrying out local spatial analysis of all forms.
