Contains 17,729 event-level loss records covering historical, with observed impacts from coastal_flood, convective_storm, drought, extreme_temperature, flood, landslide, strong_wind, tsunami, wildfire events. Loss data includes human casualties, displacement, building damage, economic losses, agricultural damage, and infrastructure impacts.

Covers 17,729 observed disaster events from historical. Data collected through direct observational reporting and includes human impacts (deaths, injuries, missing, affected, evacuated, relocated), physical impacts (houses destroyed/damaged, education centres, hospitals, roads), economic losses (local currency and USD), and agricultural impacts (crop damage in hectares, livestock losses). Methodology: Direct Observational Data / Anecdotal Data.' exposure: [] hazard: null license: CC-BY-4.0 lineage: description: Event-level disaster loss records collected through the DesInventar Sendai system, a standardised methodology for building national disaster loss databases developed by LA RED / UNDRR. National disaster events are documented through systematic review of local and national newspapers, official reports from civil protection agencies, national statistics offices, and other primary administrative sources. Each record represents a discrete observed disaster event with associated human impacts (deaths, injuries, missing persons, affected and evacuated populations), physical impacts (houses destroyed and damaged), agricultural losses (crop area damaged in hectares), and economic losses (local currency and USD where reported). Data collection and quality assurance was performed by national counterpart institutions under UNDRR coordination as part of the Sendai Framework Monitoring initiative.
