Datasets on Inflow and Outflow Migration Schedules for FDM Method
Description
Age-specific schedules of the inflow and outflow migration distribution used as input for the FDM method. rc1FDM
corresponds to 1-year ages, while rc5FDM
corresponds to 5-year age groups.
Usage
data(rc1FDM)
data(rc5FDM)
Format
A data frame where countries and ages are rows. It has four columns:
country_code
Numerical Location Code (3-digit codes following ISO 3166-1 numeric standard) - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_numeric.
age
Either single ages from 0 to 100 (
rc1FDM
) or 5-year age groups, such as “0-4”, “5-9”, ..., “100+” (rc5FDM
).
Details
These datasets are used as the default datasets in pop.predict
if mig.age.method
is either “fdmp” or “fdmnop” and the inputs
item “mig.fdm” is not given. Other default parameters of the FDM method are read from the vwBaseYear
dataset.
Source
Most of the values were provided by the United Nations Population Division.
