Regionomics specializes in applying Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to develop location-efficient solutions for infrastructure development, urban service delivery, poverty alleviation, and the analysis of census data.  Regionomics has developed advanced techniques for analyzing Census data in both developed and developing countries. In the developed world context, Regionomics applies spatial econometric methods to analyze urban systems.  In the developing country context, Regionomics is developing GIS-based solutions for poverty mapping and urban governance.

The following maps demonstrate Regionomics abilities in the application of GIS for generating location-efficient solutions:

Poverty mapping is increasing becoming popular with development practitioners and researchers.  Poverty mapping facilitates implementing location-efficient poverty elevation policies. The World Bank also maintains a resource website on Poverty Mapping.
