Every location has a profile page listing the units based/operating there, the other locations connected to it, and any incidents reported by civil society groups.

Screenshot shows the units based/operating in Kutkai Township from https://myanmar.securityforces.info/

Need to know what police, military or other unit is based/operating in an area? Our tool makes that simple! See myanmar.securityforces.info/locations/ to explore a portion of our #Myanmar data (more coming soon!)

We worked on a new data model and dataset with @secforcemonitor.bsky.social - and we are publishing the beta today. Our data model allows researchers to uncover time based graph connections, while keeping the sources for each fact.

This tool was made possible by @dot.studio - working closely with them to re-imagine our data model which made it possible to unlock new views of the changing chains of command

Proud to launch a new way to explore our complex chain of command information on police, prisons, militaries and militias. myanmar.securityforces.info
