Algeria Conflict Events: Georeferenced and Day-Level Violence Data

UCDP's most disaggregated dataset covers individual events of organized violence in Algeria. Events are geo-coded to the village level and have temporal durations disaggregated to single days. The dataset is based on research from Uppsala University and is licensed under CC-BY-3.0-IGO.

Use Cases

• Modeling conflict dynamics based on day-level temporal disaggregation.
• Spatial analysis of violence patterns based on village-level geo-coding.
• Studying trends in organized violence based on individual event records.

Strengths

• Events are geo-coded down to the level of individual villages.
• Temporal durations are disaggregated to single, individual days.
• Dataset is UCDP's most disaggregated dataset for conflict events.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
