Users can interact with the visualization to select a specific country and see several data points. Country Government Measures dataset from ACAPS, which is a non-profit, non-governmental project that provides international, independent humanitarian analysis.Ĭombining data from the IPC Acute Food Insecurity-on a scale of 1 (Minimal) to 5 (Famine)-with real-time COVID-19 external APIs, the development team produced a map that allows users to draw correlations between the pandemic and its impact on food security across the 29 FEWS NET presence countries.The COVID-19 API Project, which sourced data from the Johns Hopkins Whiting Center for Engineering, Center for Systems Science and Engineering and.Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) phase data on food security outcomes provided by FEWS NET.Data sources stored in the FDW and displayed on the visualization include: The Hub development team established Application Programming Interface (API) linkages to direct data from the FEWS NET Data Warehouse (FDW), a software managed by the Hub, onto the map via the FEWS NET website. The FEWS NET Learning and Data Hub (Hub), implemented by Kimetrica, worked collaboratively with other FEWS NET implementing partners and USAID to identify visualization components, develop, and deploy the visualization map using Mapbox Studio. By combining country-level food security status, estimates of population in need, and COVID-19 related government responses-the primary drivers of economic downturns-this visualization sheds light on the implications of the COVID-19 crisis on food security in FEWS NET countries. The interactive visualization combines FEWS NET’s early warning analyses and estimated peak population in need of emergency food assistance in its 29 presence and remote monitoring countries with daily deaths, total cases, and other factors related to the pandemic that may affect food insecurity (such as lockdowns, movement restrictions, and closure of businesses and public services). Agency for International Development (USAID) activity, is pleased to announce the launch of the FEWS NET COVID-19 Pandemic Impacts on Food Insecurity Data Visualization.
