The Humanitarian Data Exchange (HDX) is an open platform for sharing humanitarian data. The future of
HDX points to fast access to meaningful data and insightful analytics.
What is HDX?
![Page 5: The Humanitarian Data Exchange - United Nationsunstats.un.org/unsd/accsub/2014docs-24th/Presentation-OCHA.pdf · The Humanitarian Data Exchange WHERE YOUR DATA COMES TO LIFE Javier](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051522/5a6ff27f7f8b9a9d538b7c63/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
We are working on three elements that will eventually combine into an integrated data platform.
Elements
The HDX repository, where data providers can upload their raw data spreadsheets for others to find and use. (AVAILABLE NOW)
HDX analytics, a database of high-value data that can be compared across countries and crises, with tools for analysis and visualisation. (BEING DEVELOPED)
Standards to share humanitarian data through the use of a consensus Humanitarian Exchange Language. (HXL ALPHA STANDARD AVAILABLE SOON)
