Following the success of the Haiti project, the Census Bureau tackled Pakistan, a much larger country that also is affected by frequent natural disasters. The methods developed for Haiti were refined for Pakistan, where a similar correlation was found between built-up areas and 1998 census data. The 100-meter gridded population map was made available to the public during summer 2010’s severe flooding via a viewer and a data download page. The methods used in the Pakistan project are described in a paper  Link to a non-federal Web site published in the journal Remote Sensing of Environment.
