rslearn.data_sources.worldpop.WorldPop

This data source is for world population data from worldpop.org.

Currently, this only supports the WorldPop Constrained 2020 100 m Resolution dataset. See https://hub.worldpop.org/project/categories?id=3 for details.

The data is split by country. We implement with LocalFiles data source for simplicity, but it means that all of the data must be downloaded first.
