The Global IMWG Data Sub-group and OCHA-FIS will be working in 2018-2019 to further develop the guidance on country-specific CODs. Please contact FIS if you have suggestions, material or questions.

...

The following table provides a list of potential Country-Specific CODs for two types of complex emergencies. an An 'X' in the table below indicates that the dataset is likely required.  The list was created with the support of the Coordinated Data Scramble (Global Level IMWG), the analytical framework – part of MIRA), OCHA Needs Assessment and Analysis Section, two COD workshops (Berlin, April 2017 (OCHA-IMO) and Geneva, June 2017 (Global IMWG Data Sub-group) based on data required in past emergencies.
