How does HDX define humanitarian data? – The Centre for Humanitarian Data

By Alexandru Artimon

We define humanitarian data as:

data about the context in which a humanitarian crisis is occurring (e.g., baseline/development data, damage assessments, geospatial data)
data about the people affected by the crisis and their needs
data about the response by organisations and people seeking to help those who need assistance.
