UCDP Georeferenced Event Data on Ukraine Conflict

UCDP's most disaggregated dataset covers individual events of organized violence, geo-coded to the village level with temporal precision to single days. The dataset is published by the Department of Peace and Conflict Research at Uppsala University and was last updated on 2026-04-03. It is licensed under CC-BY-3.0-IGO and distributed via the HDX platform.

Use Cases

• Modeling conflict intensity and spread based on georeferenced event locations.
• Analyzing temporal patterns of violence based on daily-duration events.
• Training geospatial machine learning models on fine-grained conflict data.
• Conducting sub-national risk assessments 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.
• 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.
