UCDP Georeferenced Event Data for Malta: Individual Conflict Events

UCDP's most disaggregated dataset covers individual events of organized violence, geo-coded to the village level with temporal durations to single days. The data is sourced from the Uppsala Conflict Data Program and was last updated on 2026-04-03. It is licensed under CC-BY-3.0-IGO.

Use Cases

• Model conflict intensity and patterns based on georeferenced event locations.
• Analyze temporal trends in organized violence based on daily-duration events.
• Conduct geospatial risk assessment based on village-level event coding.

Strengths

• Events are geo-coded down to the level of individual villages.
• Temporal durations are disaggregated to single, individual days.
