The home page of the FEWS NET Data Explorer has several dynamic widgets that can make using the system more efficient.

Dataset Quick Search

The Dataset Quick Search widget allows you to quickly search for and download datasets across all data domains. You will only see results for datasets you have permission to access.

The widget searches across dataset name and id, descriptions, visibility, and owner username.

You can refine your search using operators such as quotation marks, the word or, or a minus sign. See the Search and Filter page for details.

Clicking on the name of a dataset or the CSV download button will download a .csv file of the dataset.

My Top Pages

As a new user, you will see the most frequently visited domains and datasets across all FDE users. As you use the FDE, this widget will update accordingly.

Clicking on the name of a domain will bring you to that domain page. Clicking on the name of a dataset will load the dataset.

Data Updates

The Data Updates widget allows you to easily see new data series added to the FDE.
