UCDP Georeferenced Event Data for Solomon Islands, Disaggregated to Village and Day

UCDP's most disaggregated dataset covers individual events of organized violence, geo-coded to the village level and temporally disaggregated to single days. The dataset is published by the Uppsala Conflict Data Program and was last updated on 2026-04 03. It is based on research published in the Journal of Peace Research and uses the UCDP GED Codebook version 19.1.

Use Cases

• Modeling conflict dynamics based on fine-grained temporal and spatial disaggregation.
• Mapping violence hotspots based on village-level geo-coding.
• Analyzing temporal patterns of organized violence based on daily event data.
• Conducting sub-national conflict risk assessments based on georeferenced event locations.

Strengths

• Events are geo-coded down to the level of individual villages.
• Temporal durations are disaggregated to single, individual days.
• Dataset is based on peer-reviewed methodology from 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.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the source's coverage of the Solomon Islands.
