Technical
notes |
|
Estimates and projections of the total population and population
by age and sex are prepared by the Population Division of the
United Nations Secretariat and revised every two years in order
to incorporate new data. In general, these population figures
are estimates of persons resident in the country or area at mid-year.
They are usually based on population census data adjusted to the
specified year, taking account of birth, death and international
migration rates as determined from population surveys and registers
and other national sources as available. Short-term residents
and visitors in the country or area for less than one year are
usually excluded.
