load_bolivia_grid

data.load_bolivia_grid()

Load the Bolivia 0.25-degree grid cells (n=1603) PWT-anchored GDP panel.

The raw cells of the same product as :func:load_bolivia before any administrative aggregation: Rossi-Hansberg & Zhang (2026) gridded GDP under 0_05 censoring, rescaled to Penn World Table 11.0 national totals, 2012–2022, in 2021 PPP US$.

The source keys cells by the compound (cell_id, subcell_id, subcell_id_0_25); geometrics needs a single entity id shared between gdf and df, so the loader synthesizes cell as cell_id.subcell_id.subcell_id_0_25 and joins the geometry on the cells’ unique (longitude, latitude) centers.

df pandas.DataFrame Balanced panel of 17633 rows (1603 cells x 11 years) with cell first, then every source column. Sorted by cell then year.
df_dict pandas.DataFrame Data dictionary with one row per df column, in df column order (cell is the sole entity-typed row; the three source key components are kept as factors).

Raises
