UCDP Georeferenced Event Data for Guinea: Individual Conflict Incidents

UCDP's Georeferenced Event Dataset provides disaggregated records of organized violence events in Guinea. The data is sufficiently fine-grained to be geo-coded to individual villages and disaggregated to single days. The dataset is published by the Uppsala Conflict Data Program and is licensed under CC-BY-3.0-IGO.

Use Cases

• Modeling conflict intensity and spread based on georeferenced event locations.
• Analyzing temporal patterns of violence based on daily-duration events.
• Conducting sub-national or village-level risk assessments based on disaggregated event data.

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 organized violence.

Limitations

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