This open dataset of population provides a more realistic spatial representation of where people are actually located than the current ONS census postcode headcounts but which does not rely on commercial products to achieve this. The dasymetric mapping approach adopted uses a number of other open source datasets to guide redistribution of the population from the postcode centroids into neighbouring building locations.
