Participants for a set time and purpose. No governance rights unless the charter grants them.

OCHA's Common Operational Datasets for administrative boundaries; the networks' first source for subdivisions where it exists.

A cell of Uber's open hexagonal hierarchical geospatial index; the networks aggregate pages, bodies and events per cell, never people.
