Thematic Expertise

GeoIMC provides specialized urban analysis to help humanitarian and development partners navigate the complex spatial, demographic, and socio-economic dynamics of modern cities. Our high-standard, people-centered approach ensures that crisis response and urban planning are grounded in data-driven insights at both the city and neighborhood levels.

Core Capabilities

• Spatial Differentiation & Profiling: Mapping the organization of social and economic processes to identify localized needs.

• Evidence-Based Planning: Providing area-based analysis and in-depth products to enable effective targeting and monitoring of interventions.

• Strategic Coordination: Linking local and global stakeholders to ensure inclusive urban recovery and reconstruction strategies.

• Capacity Strengthening: Implementing cohesive urban information management systems and supporting organizations with limited spatial analysis expertise.

Impact

By integrating information management with inclusive urban analysis, GeoIMC empowers partners to make informed decisions. This leads to high-quality, targeted assistance for vulnerable urban populations and more resilient long-term urban development.

GeoIMC prioritizes the mainstreaming of protection across all humanitarian responses, particularly in regions facing acute human rights challenges. We strengthen coordination and amplify the operational capacity of key protection bodies, including:

• Child Protection (CP) and Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Areas of Responsibility (AoRs).

• Housing, Land, and Property (HLP) Working Groups.

• National Protection Clusters.

By delivering regular, data-driven humanitarian situation reports, GeoIMC provides the critical analysis and monitoring needed to identify evolving needs and ensure interventions are both safe and effective.

GeoIMC provides specialized Public Health Information Services (PHIS) designed to standardize data collection and enhance decision-making in humanitarian contexts. Our approach ensures that health interventions are evidence-based, timely, and responsive to evolving needs.

Core Capabilities

• Standardization & Global Tools: We develop and implement global standards for PHIS to harmonize public health functions at both national and sub-national levels.

• Data-Driven Insights: GeoIMC manages the end-to-end data lifecycle, collecting and cross-analyzing information on affected populations, health system performance, and resource availability.

• Humanitarian Strategy: We directly support the Health Cluster in producing critical figures for Humanitarian Needs Overviews (HNO), identifying "People in Need" (PiN) and severity levels to prioritize resource allocation.

Value Proposition

By transforming complex health data into actionable insights, GeoIMC enables health clusters to:

• Identify precise gaps in service and population risks.

• Adapt activities rapidly based on contextual changes.

• Deliver reliable, timely information that optimizes donor investments and improves health outcomes.

GeoIMC provides comprehensive Food Security and Livelihood (FSL) analysis to inform high-impact development and humanitarian interventions. By integrating quantitative and qualitative research, we offer partners the evidence base needed to restore livelihoods and strengthen community resilience.

Core Capabilities

• Integrated Indicators: We track a full spectrum of data, including agriculture, natural resource management, and socio-economic vulnerability.

• Market Systems Analysis: GeoIMC evaluates both supply and demand dynamics to identify critical bottlenecks and market opportunities in agriculture and non-agriculture sectors.

• Advanced Methodologies: We utilize industry-standard tools to ensure precision, including:

  • • Emergency Market Mapping Analysis (EMMA)

    • Supply Chain & Value Chain Analysis

    • Market Functionality & Actor Mapping

    • Integrated Price Monitoring (Food & Ag-inputs)

Impact & Accountability

GeoIMC goes beyond data collection by performing rigorous impact evaluations. We measure project progression against management plans to ensure that FSL programs remain relevant, effective, and sustainable across the humanitarian-to-development nexus, from emergency response to early recovery.
