Service Description: Data on population was obtained from Eurostat (Population on 1 January by age groups and sex - cities and greater cities (urb_cpop1; http://appsso.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/nui/show.do?dataset=urb_cpop1&lang=en)) and joined to the Urban Audit 2011-2014 cities' centroids (https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco/geodata/reference-data/administrative-units-statistical-units/urban-audit#ua11-14). Where no data was available from Eurostat, this was supplemented by internet search (Google Public data Tool). This is associated with some uncertainty about the quality of data, and also means that the population is from various years.

Subject: The number of people living in the city affects the need for natural resources, such as drinking water. Therefore, the size of the city population is directly relevant to adaptation planning, e.g. in the context of water scarcity.
