COD-AB quality

Open

COD-AB (and COD-EM) datasets are categorized as ‘standard’ and ‘enhanced’ CODs.

There is an analogous categorization for Population Statistics Common Operational Datasets (COD-PS).

Enhanced CODs

Enhanced CODs have undergone improved development and quality control. Enhanced COD-AB and COD-EM datasets have been geometry and attribute quality controlled and prepared to a standardized schema by ITOS. (See COD-AB geoservices for more information about ITOS). Enhanced CODs are identified in HDX datasets views and on their HDX dataset pages with a “COD+” icon.

This information, found below the description of a COD dataset on HDX includes the icon identifying it as a Standard COD.

Standard CODs

Standard COD-ABs are those that are not ‘Enhanced’. These include many older COD-AB datasets. They may lack geometric and attribute quality control and may not adhere to the standardized schema.

Standard CODs are identified in HDX dataset views and on their HDX dataset pages with a “COD” icon.

Most new or recently updated COD-AB and COD-EM datasets are enhanced.
