Development of the Project
Project Mariupol began as a two-stage project where we documented international crimes committed in Ukraine using volunteers. The first stage, ‘A Record of Evil’, was our standalone experimental project where we conducted sourcing and mapping of potential international crimes committed in Ukraine via open sources. This experimental project serves as a testament to how civilians and beginners in OSINT and investigations can source data on international crimes.
The second stage, ‘A Gateway to Evidence’, after public feedback in stage 1 aimed to improve the project by focusing on archiving of the data/information collected and adding information on Russian military unit locations. Thus, the data was reverified and uploaded onto a more secure database storing platform. In parallel, data on Russian military units were overlaid on the map as well as an artillery range tool was created to be able to track the distances from strike locations to the units themselves.
Stage 1 report of Project Mariupol published by our project team in March 2024.
