A member of GRID3 works with a head nurse in Haut-Lomami Province, #DRC, to compare a GRID3 map of #vaxx areas w/ results from GTS. GTS shows us which communities weren't reached in the 1st round of #polio vaxx. This enables health workers to return + make sure no one is missed.

This isn’t Christmas in September. It’s us staying up late to make sure each Vaccine Buddy device is charged and ready for a recent #polio #vaxx campaign in Haut-Lomami Province, #DRC. After a hard day in the field, there’s still more work to be done.

In #Nigeria, we've been supporting #malaria microplanning for #ITN campaigns across 4 states. In #DRC's Kongo Central Province, we supported validation of the microplan for an upcoming mass net distribution. We will be there for implementation in both countries later this year.

The humble stack pictured here saves lives. GRID3 has been using the #Vaccine Buddy to support a rapid response to a #polio outbreak in the Bilomba health zone in Kasaï-Central, #DRC (an extension of similar work we’ve done recently in Maniema Province).

In this image from Maniema Province, #DRC, our team marks up GRID3 maps with permanent marker as we learn in real time. This is what operational monitoring looks like on the ground as we support a #polio and #measles/rubella #vaccination campaign.

We're supporting an integrated #vaxx campaign for #polio and #measles/rubella in Maniema Province, #DRC. When it comes to supporting vaxx campaigns, we're always striving to find better ways to combine local knowledge, #data + real-time operational monitoring.

GRID3's #Nigeria settlement extents just got better. The newest version (v4.1) is live, with a revised block delineation methodology, improved geometries, and refined classifications. These #data build on v4, which was released earlier this year. Data: data.grid3.org/datasets/GRID…

Entire communities in Kano State, #NGA, weren't receiving routine #immunizations. Not because of resource gaps, but because of #data gaps. Read the next installment of our profile of Hafiz Yaro, GRID3 Engagement Manager: bit.ly/4gUkRD1

🚨🚨 Updated #data for #Ebola response 🚨🚨 We have released a second update to our #health facility, settlement, and boundary data for Ituri Province, #DRC. Access the latest version here: bit.ly/4v8NMqe

Much of the data on #IDPs remain locked away in reports, PDFs, and spreadsheets. GRID3 has developed a new methodology, in partnership with @WorldPopProject, that changes that. #NGA bit.ly/4vbHeHn #DRC bit.ly/4v3kBFj

Settlement data help make sure no community is overlooked. Budget allocations, bednet distributions, natural disaster response – these and so many other interventions rely on settlement maps. Explore our latest data: NGA grid3.org/geospatial-data-ni… DRC grid3.org/geospatial-data-dr…

Recently in Kano State, we held informal meetings with government counterparts, strategy sessions with the GRID3 #Nigeria team, and took the chance to meet colleagues in person after months of working remotely. A formal lessons learned meeting is happening this week. More soon.
