Quickly locate the people in greatest need

With real-time location intelligence tools, humanitarian agencies and organizations can quickly and effectively make sense of chaotic and volatile situations and take optimal steps to meet their most urgent objectives.

How GIS supports disaster response

Humanitarian impact assessment through maps

Maps and imagery provide the essential base for understanding the aftermath of disaster. Overlay these with data collected from the field to create informative dashboards, quickly analyze impact, and assess needs.
