Open data
Everything the Atlas draws is downloadable — the same files the site itself uses. Take them for research, journalism, NGO mapping, teaching, or your own projects. Every organisation's “our districts” can also simply link to the Atlas's stable page URLs — every region, zone, woreda and heritage site has one.
The 15 first-level features exactly as published by OCHA COD-AB (April 2026), including the source's own “Contested” feature.
