Source Dataset Categories
Each category above aggregates the following original data from the source dataset:
Homicide
Homicidios intencionales (intentional homicide counts, not complaints)
- Homicidios intencionales
Note: Includes all intentional homicides as defined by Ecuador's COIP. Femicides (Art. 141 COIP) are tracked separately by INEC and NOT included in this count to avoid potential double-counting. May slightly undercount total intentional killings if femicides are classified exclusively under femicidio.
Robbery
Denuncias (reported complaints) of robbery — sum of 6 subtypes
- Robo a personas
- Robo de bienes, accesorios y autopartes de vehículos
- Robo de motos
- Robo de carros
- Robo a domicilio
- Robo a unidades económicas
Note: Ecuador's legal definition of 'robo' requires threats or violence (COIP Art. 189), equivalent to ICCS 0401 robbery. Subtypes include personal robbery, vehicle parts, motorcycles, cars, home robbery, and business robbery. All are counted as denuncias (reported complaints), NOT incidents — actual robbery is higher due to underreporting.
Not Tracked
The following source dataset categories are not included in the statistics above:
- Femicides by canton (Femicidios (sheet 4.femicidios_canton)) — Tracked separately from intentional homicides. Excluded to avoid potential double-counting with homicidios intencionales.
Not all crime types from the source dataset are included in the categories above. Only the categories listed are tracked.
