We're testing AI-derived geospatial datasets and #GeoAI frameworks for improving urban population mapping in low- and middle-income countries.

By combining survey data, satellite imagery, Open Buildings and anonymised mobility metrics, the project aims to support more equitable vaccine delivery, disaster response and urban planning.

#DigitalTransformation #DigitalHumanitarianism #HumanitarianTech #DataProtection #Privacy: "Despite the challenges we identify, our research confirms many of the positive claims humanitarian aid actors make about how they are improving data and tech management, and we were able to dispel some of the stereotypes and clichés surrounding the digital transformation of humanitarian response. The picture that emerges shows a humanitarian sector that is experimenting on the cutting edge of technology, pushing the boundaries of technical development in extremely harsh conditions, and navigating seemingly impossible challenges while balancing high stakes and risks.

That said, the collaboration between aid organisations and companies is also bringing emerging and untested technologies to volatile contexts without sufficient transparency, due process, protection protocols, or recourse mechanisms. As we discovered, humanitarian tech partnerships seem to dodge normative and regulatory data protection frameworks by claiming the extra-legality and extraterritoriality of the technology or the implementation, by taking advantage of the secretive nature of their agreements, and sometimes of their immunities. These gaps leave people participating in aid programs without recourse or oversight which might allow them to enforce their human rights."
