British Indian Ocean Territory: Copernicus Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL)

Copernicus

Time Period of the Dataset [?]: January 01, 2025-December 31, 2025 ... More

Open and free data for assessing the human presence on the planet. The Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) project produces global spatial information, evidence-based analytics, and knowledge describing the human presence on the planet. The GHSL relies on the design and implementation of spatial data processing technologies that allow automatic data analytics and information extraction from large amounts of heterogeneous geospatial data including global, fine-scale satellite image data streams, census data, and crowd sourced or volunteered geographic information sources. The JRC, together with the Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy (DG REGIO) and Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space (DG DEFIS) are working towards a regular and operational monitoring of global built-up and population based on the processing of Sentinel Earth Observation data produced by European Copernicus space program. In addition, the EU Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) undertakes activities related to user uptake of data, information and services.

British Indian Ocean Territory: Road Surface Data

HeiGIT (Heidelberg Institute for Geoinformation Technology)

Time Period of the Dataset [?]: November 07, 2024-November 07, 2024 ... More

This dataset provides detailed information on road surfaces from OpenStreetMap (OSM) data, distinguishing between **paved** and **unpaved** surfaces across the region. This information is based on road surface prediction derived from hybrid deep learning approach. For more information on Methods, refer to the [paper](http://arxiv.org/abs/2410.19874) Roughly 0.0001 million km of roads are mapped in OSM in this region. Based on AI-mapped estimates the share of paved and unpaved roads is approximately 0.0 and 0.0 (in million kms), corressponding to 0.3477% and 28.0622% respectively of the total road length in the dataset region. 0.0001 million km or 71.5901% of road surface information is missing in OSM. In order to fill this gap, Mapillary derived road surface dataset provides an additional 0.0 million km of information (corressponding to 0.0% of total missing information on road surface) It is intended for use in transportation planning, infrastructure analysis, climate emissions and geographic information system (GIS) applications. This dataset provides comprehensive information on road and urban area features, including location, surface quality, and classification metadata. This dataset includes attributes from OpenStreetMap (OSM) data, AI predictions for road surface, and urban classifications. AI features: pred_class: Model-predicted class for the road surface, with values "paved" or "unpaved." pred_label: Binary label associated with pred_class (0 = paved, 1 = unpaved). osm_surface_class: Classification of the surface type from OSM, categorized as "paved" or "unpaved." combined_surface_osm_priority: Surface classification combining pred_label and surface(OSM) while prioritizing the OSM surface tag, classified as "paved" or "unpaved." combined_surface_DL_priority: Surface classification combining pred_label and surface(OSM) while prioritizing DL prediction pred_label, classified as "paved" or "unpaved." n_of_predictions_used: Number of predictions used for the feature length estimation. predicted_length: Predicted length based on the DL model’s estimations, in meters. DL_mean_timestamp: Mean timestamp of the predictions used, for comparison. OSM features may have these attributes(Learn what tags mean here): name: Name of the feature, if available in OSM. name:en: Name of the feature in English, if available in OSM. name:* (in local language): Name of the feature in the local official language, where available. highway: Road classification based on OSM tags (e.g., residential, motorway, footway). surface: Description of the surface material of the road (e.g., asphalt, gravel, dirt). smoothness: Assessment of surface smoothness (e.g., excellent, good, intermediate, bad). width: Width of the road, where available. lanes: Number of lanes on the road. oneway: Indicates if the road is one-way (yes or no). bridge: Specifies if the feature is a bridge (yes or no). layer: Indicates the layer of the feature in cases where multiple features are stacked (e.g., bridges, tunnels). source: Source of the data, indicating the origin or authority of specific attributes. Urban classification features may have these attributes: continent: The continent where the data point is located (e.g., Europe, Asia). country_iso_a2: The ISO Alpha-2 code representing the country (e.g., "US" for the United States). urban: Binary indicator for urban areas based on the GHSU Urban Layer 2019. (0 = rural, 1 = urban) urban_area: Name of the urban area or city where the data point is located. osm_id: Unique identifier assigned by OpenStreetMap (OSM) to each feature. osm_type: Type of OSM element (e.g., node, way, relation). The data originates from OpenStreetMap (OSM) and is augmented with model predictions using images downloaded from Mapillary in combination with the GHSU Global Human Settlement Urban Layer 2019 and AFRICAPOLIS2020 urban layer. This dataset is one of many HeiGIT exports on HDX. See the HeiGIT website for more information. We are looking forward to hearing about your use-case! Feel free to reach out to us and tell us about your research at communications@heigit.org – we would be happy to amplify your work.

British Indian Ocean Territory - IDMC Event data (Internal Displacement Updates)

Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)

Time Period of the Dataset [?]: September 27, 2023-March 25, 2024 ... More

Resource has no data rows! No conflict and disaster population movement (flows) data recorded for British Indian Ocean Territory in the last 180 days. Internally displaced persons are defined according to the 1998 Guiding Principles (https://www.internal-displacement.org/publications/ocha-guiding-principles-on-internal-displacement) as people or groups of people who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of armed conflict, or to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights, or natural or human-made disasters and who have not crossed an international border. The IDMC's Event data, sourced from the Internal Displacement Updates (IDU), offers initial assessments of internal displacements reported within the last 180 days. This dataset provides provisional information that is continually updated on a daily basis, reflecting the availability of data on new displacements arising from conflicts and disasters. The finalized, carefully curated, and validated estimates are then made accessible through the Global Internal Displacement Database (GIDD), accessible at https://www.internal-displacement.org/database/displacement-data. The IDU dataset comprises preliminary estimates aggregated from various publishers or sources.

British Indian Ocean Territory - Internally displaced persons - IDPs

Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)

Time Period of the Dataset [?]: January 01, 2021-December 31, 2021 ... More

Internally displaced persons are defined according to the 1998 Guiding Principles (http://www.internal-displacement.org/publications/1998/ocha-guiding-principles-on-internal-displacement) as people or groups of people who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of armed conflict, or to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights, or natural or human-made disasters and who have not crossed an international border. "People Displaced" refers to the number of people living in displacement as of the end of each year. "New Displacement" refers to the number of new cases or incidents of displacement recorded, rather than the number of people displaced. This is done because people may have been displaced more than once. Contains data from IDMC's Global Internal Displacement Database.
