I've been using your linked data - the Barro-Lee population model - from the World Bank site, using the R package 'WDI' (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/WDI/index.html).
For instance I'm using the indicators BAR.POP.3034, BAR.POP.3539, etc to forecast the population of the Barro-Lee like age segments in the middle east.
I was lead to your data via this page http://worldbank.270a.info/classification/indicator/BAR.POP.3034.html)
What I'm finding is that when I total up the Barro-Lee age segments (ages 25+) along with World bank indictors (SP.POP.AG03.TO.UN etc) for ages 0-25, then I find that my totals don't match very well the 2010 total populations as shown in this type of explorer:
The discrepancy is greatest for countries like Qatar, UAE and Bahrain that have seen accelerated total population growth in the last year.
e.g. Barro-Lee give 4.8M total population in 2010, while Google (based on Worldbank totals) give 8.4M.
My question is, is it possible that the Barro-Lee data provided by the World bank, and your linked data, is not using the latest Barro-Lee data, which came out in April 2013 (according to their website)?
The resources at http://worldbank.270a.info/ are no longer reachable. Can this be fixed? If not is there another mirror of these datasets?
