Abstract

Projects proposed, in progress, or completed as part of the annual Egypt Humanitarian Response Plans (HRPs) or other Humanitarian Programme Cycle plans. The original data is available on https://hpc.tools

Important: some projects in Egypt might be missing, and others might not apply specifically to Egypt. See Caveats under the Additional information tab.

Each row in this dataset represents time-series observations. Temporal coverage is indicated by the startdate, enddate column(s). Geographic scope: EGY.

Curated into ML-ready Parquet format by Electric Sheep Africa.

Curation

Raw data was downloaded from HDX via the CKAN API and converted to Parquet. Column names were lowercased and standardised to snake_case. Common missing-value markers (N/A, null, none, -, unknown, no data, #N/A) were unified to NaN. 1 column(s) with >80% missing values were removed: partners. 2 column(s) were cast from string to numeric or datetime based on parse-success rate (>85% threshold). The dataset was split 80/20 into train and test partitions using a fixed random seed (42) and saved as Snappy-compressed Parquet.

Limitations

• Data originates from OCHA Humanitarian Programme Cycle Tools (HPC Tools) and has not been independently validated by ESA.
• Automated cleaning cannot correct for misreported values, definitional inconsistencies, or sampling bias in the original collection.
• Refer to the original HDX dataset page for the publisher's own methodology notes and caveats.
