What's shipped, and what's coming next. Updated as work lands.

Backlog what's planned
In progress

Territorial control by region

How much of each Ukrainian oblast is under Russian control, and how that has shifted month by month. The underlying measurements are built and verified; the chart itself is next.

Drone and missile attacks

Two new data sources: the dataset of Russian missile and drone attacks based on Ukrainian Air Force data and the data on Ukrainian drone attacks from the Russian Defence Ministry.

Planned

Date ranges on every chart

Switch a time series between the last year, since 2023, or the whole full-scale war, instead of one fixed window.

Downloads that carry their source

A downloaded chart image currently arrives as a bare plot. It should come with the title, the source and the licence attached, so it can be published as-is.

Exploring
