OpenWatch
Risk Database

Every incident, queryable. The record and the live feed.

A structured, growing database of Nigerian security incidents, each one classified, geocoded, dated, and confidence-scored, available on the live map and through the developer API.

The problem
01

Security history in Nigeria is scattered across news sites, social posts, and PDFs that nobody can actually query.

02

Headlines vanish within days, so there is no durable, structured record you can search by state, type, or date.

03

Analysts rebuild the same incident timelines by hand, every single time they need one.

How OpenWatch helps

Structured and classified

Every incident carries a type, severity, location, date, and a confidence score, not just a paragraph of prose.

Searchable history

Query years of incidents by state, category, severity, and recency, all in one place.

API access

Pull the same structured data into your own systems. The only self-serve incident API in the region.

Query the record.

Explore the live database on the map, or build on it with the developer API.
