Population density disaggregated with CLC2000

Model assumed: Ycm : density of population for land cover type c in commune m. Uc coefficients for each land cover type. Wm : adjustment coefficient for each commune to ensure that the total population in each commune matches the administrative data. - No stratification of communes has been used for this version. - The coefficients for CLC classes are provisional. They correspond as order of magnitude to the estimates made for the disggregation of the 1991 data. Improvements are still needed. - CLC recoded into 9 classes, following also the studies made on the 1991 data.
