Institut Francais de Géopolitique. Bienvenue sur le site de l'Observatoire d'Etudes Géopolitiques. Académie de Géopolitique de Paris. OGC : Observatoire Géopolitique des Criminalités - Lettre d'information. UCDP Georeferenced Event Data - Uppsala Conflict Data Program (Uppsala Universtiy) Welcome! The UCDP GED is an event-based and georeferenced dataset on organized violence, detailing all of the UCDP's categories of violence (state-based conflict, non-state conflict and one-sided violence) in Africa between 1989 and 2010 at the level of the individual event of violence.

In contrast to the UCDP's country-year datasets, that are separated between different datasets depending on the type of violence they track, the UCDP GED contains data on all types of organized violence, disaggregated spatially and temporally down to the level of the individual incidents of fatal violence. Each event comes complete with date of the event, place of the event (with coordinates), actors participating in the event, estimates of fatalities, as well as variables that denote the certainty with which these data are known. This new dataset allows for the analysis of the causes, dynamics and resolution of organized violence at a level of analysis below the state system. [Close] Homepage.
