iMMAP

iMMAP is a pioneering humanitarian organization that for more than a decade has led the way in the effective use of information management practices and principles in service to the world’s most vulnerable populations.

New approaches and new solutions are required to address a range of problems plaguing humanitarian responders. iMMAP applies appropriate information management practices and new information technologies in service to the humanitarian community, enabling them to solve pressing global humanitarian challenges.

The iMMAP team was formed in late-1998, leading the first internationally-coordinated effort to combine information management, sociology and Geographic Information System technology to define the scourge of landmines and explosive remnants of war and change the way their impact on society is measured. iMMAP remains the premier humanitarian information management organization, guiding international crisis responders who work to alleviate the suffering of those most in need.

Testimonials
	The spatial data provided by iMMAP at the onset of the humanitarian crisis in Lebanon has provided a huge boost to the provision of mapping support to the operation. No operation I have previously been involved in benefited from such quality data at such an early stage. From day one we were able to produce reliable routing maps used to notify the Israeli Defense Forces of planned humanitarian aid convoys. These daily notifications are crucial for their safe passage. Weeks can go by before reaching this level of reliability under usual data preparedness conditions.” —United Nations Joint Logistics Centre
