Curation

Raw data was downloaded from HDX via the CKAN API and converted to Parquet. Column names were lowercased and standardised to snake_case. Common missing-value markers (N/A, null, none, -, unknown, no data, #N/A) were unified to NaN. 2 exact duplicate rows were removed. 5 column(s) were cast from string to numeric or datetime based on parse-success rate (>85% threshold). The dataset was split 80/20 into train and test partitions using a fixed random seed (42) and saved as Snappy-compressed Parquet.


Limitations

  • —Data originates from OCHA HQ and has not been independently validated by ESA.
  • —Automated cleaning cannot correct for misreported values, definitional inconsistencies, or sampling bias in the original collection.
  • —The following columns have >20% missing values and should be treated with caution in modelling: unnamed_2, unnamed_4, unnamed_6.
  • —This dataset spans 2 countries; geographic and methodological inconsistencies across national boundaries may affect cross-country comparability.
  • —Refer to the original HDX dataset page for the publisher's own methodology notes and caveats.
