The AidData Center for Development Policy Official Logo of the United States Agency for International Development Funded through a five-year, $25 million cooperative agreement with the U.S. Global Development Lab, the AidData Center for Development Policy provides geospatial data and tools that enable the global development community to more effectively target, coordinate, and evaluate aid. The Center is a consortium of five partners: AidData at the College of William and Mary, Development Gateway, Brigham Young University, the University of Texas at Austin, and Esri. Working in partnership with USAID country missions, host governments, and civil society groups, the Center pinpoints the precise geographic locations of development projects and creates subnational maps and dashboards that overlay geocoded project data with high-resolution spatial data on poverty, disease, violence, environmental degradation, and governance. These data and tools make it possible to visualize and analyze where funds are going at the subnational level compared to the areas of greatest need and opportunity.
