The current dataset uses one single source and includes measures taken by 188 countries.
Four different categories are currently available including many measures for each one.
The original source didn't include the Continent property. I computed that property to improve the Region property.
Measure and Comments are expected to be parsed and processed to extract more computable properties in the future.

Visualizations

Visualize the different source types:

Out[2]=

See the temporal coverage of the provided data:

In[3]:=
TimelinePlot[{DateInterval[ MinMax[DeleteMissing@Lookup[Normal@ResourceData[ ResourceObject["Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic Government Measures"]], "ImplementationDate"]]]}]
Out[3]=

Analysis

See the different categories of measures taken by governments:

In[4]:=
Dataset[<|"Category" -> #|> & /@ DeleteDuplicates@Lookup[Normal@ResourceData[ ResourceObject["Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic Government Measures"]], "Category"]]
Out[4]=

Categories gathered by country:

In[5]:=
gatheredData = GatherBy[DeleteDuplicates@Lookup[Normal@ResourceData[ ResourceObject[ "Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic Government Measures"]], \ {"Country", "Category"}], Last];
In[6]:=
Dataset[Function[ u, <|"Category" -> u[[1, 2]], "Countries" -> u[[All, 1]]|>] /@ gatheredData]
Out[6]=

Countries under lockdown:

In[7]:=
Cases[Lookup[Normal@ResourceData[ ResourceObject[ "Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic Government Measures"]], \ {"Country", "Category"}], {_, "Lockdown"}][[All, 1]]
Out[7]=
In[8]:=
GeoListPlot[%]
Out[8]=

Countries that implemented social distancing but not movement restrictions:

In[9]:=
Complement[gatheredData[[3]][[All, 1]], gatheredData[[4]][[All, 1]]]
Out[9]=
In[10]:=
GeoListPlot[%]
Out[10]=

See the different kinds of movement restrictions implemented by countries:

In[11]:=
Dataset[<|"Restriction" -> #|> & /@ Sort@DeleteDuplicates[Cases[Lookup[Normal@ResourceData[ ResourceObject[ "Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic Government Measures"]], \ {"Category", "Measure"}], {"Movement restrictions", _}][[All, 2]]]]
Out[11]=

Countries with checkpoints:

In[12]:=
Cases[Lookup[Normal@ResourceData[ ResourceObject[ "Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic Government Measures"]], \ {"Country", "Category", "Measure"}], {_, "Movement restrictions", "Checkpoints"}][[All, 1]]
