UCDP Georeferenced Event Data: Daily Conflict Events in Nepal

UCDP's most disaggregated dataset records individual events of organized violence occurring at specific times and places. The data is sufficiently fine-grained to be geo-coded to the village level and disaggregated to single days. It is published by the Uppsala Conflict Data Program and last updated on 2026-04-03.

Use Cases

• Analyze spatial patterns of conflict intensity based on geo-coded village locations.
• Model temporal trends in organized violence based on daily event disaggregation.
• Conduct sub-national conflict risk assessment based on fine-grained event data.
• Correlate conflict events with other socio-economic or environmental datasets based on precise geolocation.

Strengths

• Events are geo-coded down to the level of individual villages.
• Temporal duration is 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.
