City populations are measured using satellite-mapped urban footprints for global consistency.
Is global consistency more important than accuracy? This says Perth has 1.1M people, which is a pretty huge difference from the actual 2.3M. Seems useless. I guess that means it's twice as spread out as whatever the standard is, but then make that map instead.
Why bother, just listen to any right wing political commentator over the last 10 years, it's all George Soros right?
