Q: Where can I see if my country of interest has CODs?
A: Inspect the COD Portal or the HDX COD Dashboard.
Q: What are COD geoservices?
A: Many COD-ABs have live geoservices and they are being added gradually to all remaining COD-ABs. These services allow GIS systems to directly consume the most up-to-date COD-AB version into a map or automated system. Once the map with the geoservices is saved, it will load the newest boundaries when re-opened. For more information see COD Tutorial: How to consume COD live services.
Q: I understand that Humanitarian Profiles are one of the three types of Core CODs… but I haven’t noticed any in HDX.
A: It is true that not many Humanitarian Needs Overviews (HNOs) have yet posted their Humanitarian Profiles (COD-HP) to HDX. We are working to improve this.
