Each dimension is normalised 0–100 against the global maximum, then weighted and summed.
Conflict intensity is driven by GDELT — a real-time index monitoring 100+ languages of
global news every 15 minutes, measuring the ratio of conflict events per country.
Displacement, seismic and internet repression use a static baseline updated quarterly
from UNHCR, USGS and OONI/Freedom House data.
