Below you will find a compilation of data sets we prepared at Orange for your convenience; not all of them concern Ivory Coast, but they might inspire you to look for something. In general we have not evaluated their quality, and we will not undertake to initiate contact with these organisations on your behalf. Please take the initiative yourself.
We encourage researchers to look for datasets that could be combined with the data we release. In this regard we suggest you look at our partner’s websites the United Nations “Global Pulse” and the “Mobile and Development Intelligence” (MDI) from the GSMA.
