UCDP Georeferenced Event Dataset: Daily Conflict Events in Germany

UCDP's most disaggregated dataset covers individual events of organized violence occurring at a given time and place. The data is sufficiently fine-grained to be geo-coded down to the level of individual villages, with temporal durations disaggregated to single days. It is sourced from the Department of Peace and Conflict Research at Uppsala University and was last updated on March 3, 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling conflict dynamics based on temporally disaggregated daily events.
• Mapping spatial patterns of violence based on geo-coding to individual villages.
• Analyzing 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 described as UCDP's most disaggregated dataset.

Limitations

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