SDG Indicator 9.1.1: Rural Access Index (RAI), 2023 Release

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The SDG Indicator 9.1.1: The Rural Access Index (RAI), 2023 Release data set, part of the SDGI collection, measures the proportion of the rural population who live within 2 kilometers of an all-season road for a given statistical area.

Description

UN SDG 9 is "build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation". Addressing inadequate access to roads, especially in rural areas, is critical to achieving SDG 9.

According to the UN Sustainable Transport, Sustainable Development 2021 Interagency Report, sustainable transportation helps to eliminate poverty, promote food security, improve access to key health services, increase trade competitiveness, and bolster human rights. As one measure of progress towards SDG 9, the UN has established SDG indicator 9.1.1. The indicator was computed as the proportion of WorldPop gridded population within 2 kilometers to an OpenStreetMap (OSM) all-season road.
