Africa Operations Map
Mapping humanitarian, development and operational activity across Africa. Explore where organisations and programmes operate alongside the security, humanitarian and access environments surrounding those activities.
Receiving AIS transmissions — up to 15 seconds…
AIS-visible traffic only. Receiver coverage is uneven; boats without AIS and vessels with AIS switched off are not shown. Positions may be delayed or spoofed. Not for navigation.

Provenance & data architecture
Source → ingestion → normalisation → geographic mapping → analysis
Public operations data
Activity, organisation and needs records are drawn from UN OCHA HDX (HAPI) operational presence and Humanitarian Needs Overview data and from the IATI Registry. Publisher, dataset reference and reference period stay attached to every record.
Security intelligence
Security and political markers come from published Mazin Intel intelligence records. They are source-reported or analyst-reviewed records, not a claim of continuous real-time monitoring.
Geographic precision
Country, region and corridor records remain at their supplied precision. Exact coordinates are never inferred when a source provides only administrative geography.
