Dataset Visibility

Dataset visibility can be selected from the following options:

  • Public: Visibility is not restricted.

  • Owner: Visibility is restricted to the individual who created the dataset.

  • Group: Visibility is restricted to the user’s Group. You may belong to multiple groups.

  • FEWS NET Only: Visibility is restricted to FEWS NET staff.

Visibility only means that the Dataset is visible. It does not give access to the underlying data. For example, if a Public Dataset contains restricted data, then all users can see the Dataset and use it to select data, but users without the appropriate permissions will receive an extract that excludes the restricted data.
