Snapshot

Governance maturity

A factual record of which kinds of AI governance instrument are documented for each jurisdiction. This is a presence-and-absence snapshot of the archive's holdings — not a score, ranking or assessment of quality.

A filled mark means at least one record in the archive evidences that dimension for the jurisdiction. An empty mark means nothing is currently recorded — which may reflect a gap in coverage rather than a gap in national activity. See methodology for how documents are classified.
