Ethiopia NightTime Light

This dataset presents high-resolution satellite-derived Nighttime Lights (NTL) imagery of Ethiopia,a resolution of approximately 5000 mettres ,  acquired from NASA’s Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS). NTL data captures the intensity and distribution of artificial lighting, serving as a proxy for human settlements, infrastructure development, and economic activity.
