World leader schedules and office records dataset

Source-linked research downloads with versioned releases, checksums and a data dictionary.

Release 20261025T074537Z-a27d56acd16d · snapshot 2026-10-25T07:45:37+00:00. CSV and JSON describe the same accepted snapshot as the site. Confirmed meetings are separate from mentions and possible co-presence.

Versioned downloads

Files ending in .gz are gzip compressed. Decompress them before opening the CSV or JSON. When a dataset is split into numbered parts, download every part in order for the complete snapshot; the manifest lists format, part count and total rows.

Save the downloaded files, release manifest and checksums when citing a version. Redundant version URLs may expire under the release retention policy; a saved snapshot preserves reproducibility.

Method and limits

Automated collection uses configured primary office sources and labelled secondary aggregators. Office announcements do not imply personal attendance. Unknown occurrence dates, venues and actor identities remain unknown. Historical coverage varies by office; compare the same sources and period when studying change. Inspect retrieval health and missingness.
