Mali Conflict Events with Village-Level Geocoding and Daily Temporal Detail

Individual events of organized violence in Mali, geocoded to the level of villages with temporal durations disaggregated to single days. The dataset is the Uppsala Conflict Data Program's most disaggregated event dataset, with methodology described in the Journal of Peace Research and a codebook from Uppsala University. The data was last updated on 2026-04 03.

Use Cases

• Model conflict intensity and spread based on georeferenced event locations.
• Analyze temporal patterns of violence based on daily event disaggregation.
• Train geospatial prediction models for conflict risk using village-level coordinates.

Strengths

• Events are geocoded down to the level of individual villages.
• Temporal durations are disaggregated to single, individual days.
• Methodology is peer-reviewed and published in the Journal of Peace Research.

Limitations

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