Released maps

Maps of Digital Public Infrastructure are published here once their data rights are cleared and they have been reviewed. Each shows its time and space reference, its sources and its uncertainty.

01In brief

The short answer.

Digital Public Infrastructure released maps are reviewed map views of digital public infrastructure, published once their data rights are cleared, each with its coordinate reference, date, sources and uncertainty. Layers draw on sources such as World Bank ID4D global dataset and diagnostics. A map shows released, rights-cleared evidence, not a live feed or an official warning.

For released maps, in GCRI's spatial-intelligence reading, the map opens on night lights, population density and true-colour imagery with true colour from NASA GIBS, framed on World; every other NASA layer, live feed and forecast waits in the layer list.Satellite and model products as NASA publishes them, each with its own date; indicators, not assessments of any place; claim ceiling INTEGRATED.

05Reading the maps

Cautions that apply to DPI maps.

Coverage maps show registration, not use.
Payment system maps show availability, not inclusion.
Data change quickly.

06Status

Releases appear as they are reviewed.

Analysis runs in Nexus Foundry; reviewed releases are listed here.

07Key terms

Terms used on this page.

Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.

Term	Definition
Coordinate reference system	The definition that ties coordinates to locations on Earth, catalogued with EPSG codes.
Modifiable areal unit problem	The change in statistical results that comes from how areas are drawn and aggregated.
Zonal statistics	Statistics of raster values summarised within boundaries such as districts.
Public-safe release	A recorded decision on the detail at which a layer may be published without exposing sensitive sites or people.
