Dear Jaime,

1. You want to make Population density map. The map making process
depends on your input data. 

a. If you have population census data by polygon, the process is
straight. Start rasterizing it. Do histogram calculation and create new
column of population density (in histogram table) by dividing population
data by assigning it to the raster map. You can apply CLFY function to
further classify among your classes. Or You can do it on Table
Calculation as well.

b. If  you have point data and these data have population value (but not
density), you can interpolate the point, classify among some classes and
make some areas. Then redo the step a.

Asunto: (ilwis-list) information about a population density map

Dear colleagues,
I'm trying create a density population map (raster) where every pixel
has a 
density value but taking into account that population density is higher
in 
urban areas than rural areas. Someone said me that it's possible
creating a 
counting filter or something else. Do you know how I could it?
Thanks for your help,

Sincerely,

                 Jaime
