This illustration, created by Terence Teo, depicts Mozambique’s population density on a three-dimensional map. To do this, Terence has extracted the data available at Kontur Population, which it uses to generate, via a programme, columns whose height represents the population density at each point.

This map of Mozambique shows the distribution of the population across a number of major cities, such as Maputo, the capital, Nampula, Beira, Chimoio, Quelimane and Tete.
