Egypt data in one shortlist: 14 geospatial and 16 statistical sources, most of them free direct downloads

Asked:

“where can i find egypt geospatial data and statistical data? for each one , list the website name, dataset name, dataset url or download link.”

This is a curated practical shortlist, not an exhaustive inventory: 30 Egypt data resources verified from live web results on 2026-10-15 — 14 geospatial datasets across 8 hosts (boundaries, OpenStreetMap features, population grids, land cover, elevation, watersheds) and 16 statistical resources across 10 hosts (CAPMAS, World Bank, UN, ILO, FAO, IMF, health and census data). Some are global datasets that cover Egypt rather than Egypt-only products.

Who hosts what: resources per host, geospatial vs statistical

Each bar counts shortlisted resources on one host. Hover a bar for the dataset names behind it.

Geospatial data (maps, grids, boundaries) Statistical data (indicators, microdata)

HDX (data.humdata.org) is the single busiest host in the shortlist, carrying 9 of the 30 resources — boundaries, population grids and health, nutrition and World Bank indicator tables. data.humdata.org

Only one of the 30 resources is registration-restricted: IPUMS International census microdata, limited to scholarly use; GADM additionally bars commercial reuse without permission. international.ipums.org

CAPMAS is Egypt’s official statistical agency in the list; its censusinfo catalog exposes publications such as “Egypt in figures” with CSV export. censusinfo.capmas.gov.eg

Two of the geospatial layers — Copernicus DEM GLO-30 elevation and HydroATLAS watersheds — are accessed through Google Earth Engine rather than file download. developers.google.com

Curated practical shortlist of Egypt data sources, 30 rows (14 geospatial, 16 statistical), verified from live web results on 2026-10-15. Counts measure shortlisted resources per host, not every dataset a host offers; the list is not exhaustive. Long coverage and format descriptions are truncated in the table — follow each link for the full page. Licenses, access rules and update dates should be checked on each linked page before use.
