Master Datacard for Urban, Disaster Risk, Resilience, and Land Indicators for African Countries
This repository contains time-series datasets for key urban development, disaster risk, resilience, and land indicators for 54 African countries. The data is sourced from The World Bank and has been cleaned, processed, and organized for analysis.
Each country has its own set of files, including a main CSV dataset and a corresponding datacard in Markdown format. The data covers the period from 1960 to 2024, where available.
Repository Structure
The datasets are organized by country. Each country's folder contains:
- A CSV file with the naming convention:
{CountryName}-Urban_Disaster_Risk_Resilience_and_Land-Indicators-Dataset-{StartYear}-{EndYear}.csv
- A detailed datacard named
datacard_Urban_Disaster_Risk_Resilience_and_Land.md
.
Indicators Included
This collection includes the following indicators:
- Internally displaced persons, new displacement associated with disasters (number of cases)
- Urban land area where elevation is below 5 meters (sq. km)
- Urban population (% of total population)

Data Preparation
The raw data from The World Bank was processed using a Python script with the following steps:
- Filtering: Data was filtered for each of the 54 African countries.
- Reshaping: Wide-format data (with years as columns) was melted into a long format.
- Merging: All indicator files for a country were merged into a single time-series dataset based on the 'Year' column.
- Cleaning: The 'Year' column was converted to a standard date format (
YYYY-MM-DD
). - Missing Data Handling: Gaps in the time-series were filled using linear interpolation followed by a back-fill to ensure data continuity.
How to Use
You can access the data directly through the Hugging Face Hub, either by downloading individual files or by using the datasets
library to load the data.
from datasets import load_dataset
# Example: Load the dataset for Nigeria
dataset = load_dataset('electricsheepafrica/Urban-Disaster-Risk-Resilience-and-Land-Indicators-For-African-Countries', data_files='Nigeria/Nigeria-Urban_Disaster_Risk_Resilience_and_Land-Indicators-Dataset-1960-2024.csv')
