    Abstract: A population density map of a region is generated by dividing the region into cells and allocating a population of the region only to the cells that are accessible to people, or are believed to be populated. Each of the cells is classified based on one or more ground features of the cells, and an adjustment factor for each of the cells is determined based at least in part on the classifications. Equal shares of the population of the region are allocated to each of the cells that is accessible or populated, and the equal shares are multiplied by the adjustment factors determined for the respective ones of the cells to calculate a population for each of such cells.

    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods to determine preferred delivery points within a parcel that are available to receive an aerial delivery of an item. For each delivery point a plurality of criteria scores may be determined for various criteria based on a processing of parcel data, image data, and/or sensor data corresponding to the parcel. The criteria may be aerial navigation related criteria or user preference criteria. The criteria scores may then be used to determine a suitability score for each delivery point. In some implementations, a user may specify a preferred delivery point and/or indicate one user criteria as more important than another criteria.
