Integrating our silo-ed approaches to "slum" mapping to generate routine, accurate maps of deprived urban areas at scale

About us

The IDEAMAPS Network was launched in 2020 by the IDEAMAPS Project with funding from a UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) grant. The network and project both grew out of workshops hosted by the African Population and Health Research Center, Slum Dwellers International – Kenya, and UN-Habitat in Nairobi in 2019. The IDEAMAPS Network welcomes field-based community mappers, local governments, academics, and data scientists to collaborate and map deprived urban areas routinely and accurately at scale in low- and middle-income countries. The aim of this network is to develop and maintain an Integrated DEprived Area MAPping System (IDEAMAPS) that leverages the strengths of our current silo-ed approaches to "slum" area mapping.
