Service Disruption Type
https://schema.aidops.org/vocab/service-disruption-type
Essential services that may be disrupted in a post-shock context. Multi-select vocabulary: a record lists every service currently disrupted at the household's dwelling. Codes cover both full interruption (service not functioning at all) and partial interruption such as intermittent supply or unsafe water, so a record can describe present-but-non-functional and present-but-contaminated cases in addition to complete outages. This captures functional status after the shock; the household's usual service infrastructure type is recorded separately by water_source, sanitation_facility, and electricity_access.
Values
| Code | Label | Standard code | Definition |
|---|---|---|---|
water | Water | Drinking-water supply is not functioning or not available. | |
sanitation | Sanitation | Sanitation facility (toilet, latrine, greywater disposal) is damaged or unusable. | |
electricity | Electricity | Grid or off-grid electricity supply is not functioning. | |
telecommunications | Telecommunications | Mobile or fixed-line telecommunications (voice, SMS, data) are not functioning. | |
water_unsafe | Water present but unsafe | Drinking-water supply is physically available but contaminated or otherwise not safe to drink without further treatment (for example, visibly turbid, microbiologically unsafe, or mixed with sewage). Use alongside the water code when both outage and safety issues are relevant. | |
water_intermittent | Water intermittent | Drinking-water supply is functioning only part of the time (scheduled rationing, pressure drops, or unreliable source), such that household access is not continuous. | |
electricity_intermittent | Electricity intermittent | Grid or off-grid electricity supply is functioning only part of the time (scheduled load shedding, partial-day outages, unreliable source), such that continuous household use is not possible. | |
sanitation_overflowing | Sanitation overflowing or unsanitary | Sanitation facility is physically present but overflowing, flooded, or otherwise in an unsanitary state that makes safe use impossible (e.g., a pit latrine inundated after flooding). Use alongside the sanitation code when both full breakdown and unsanitary state are relevant. | |
none | No service disruption | Recorded explicitly to distinguish from missing observation when the household reports that all services are currently functioning. |
