Geospatial information & mapping

Welcome to our geospatial data and mapping pages. These resources are a mixture of our own user guides, tips and tools and a curated set of externally produced materials that we think are really useful.

The IGSD research team uses geographic information systems (GIS) and mapping in its research projectsLink opens in a new window. We combine approaches from many disciplines to co-create research with stakeholders for the benefit of the people living in informal communities. We believe in open source and are committed to sharing what we know.
