(*The Municipal Population Projections by Area -2005-2008 included here are the definitive result of applying various methods, depending on the availability of information and the geographic scale. For the departmental level, the demographic components was used, and the results were later disaggregated within each department using the semi-demographic “cohort relations” method, with the exception of the departments of Amazonas, Guaviare, Guainía, Vaupés and Vichada for which the residence relations method was used. In order to break down the population by administrative center, the participation of municipal administrative centers was projected with the help of the logistic function).
