Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Take a geographic approach to ensure no one is left behind
Drive progress with GIS
Gain a location-based understanding of the factors that influence development goals to effectively target action within communities.
- Integrate and collect data
- Understand indicators
- Monitor and share progress
Integrate and collect SDG data for reporting
Location is key to understanding SDG indicators. With ArcGIS, you can integrate administrative, census, and demographic data from business systems, tabular sources, and earth observations. Support accurate data collection in any environment to ensure data is current for analysis and reporting.
Calculate and analyze SDG indicator data
ArcGIS uses spatial data science to examine and analyze SDG indicator data in relation to geographic location. With this insight, you can do more than map where things are. You can understand patterns and trends that help focus your efforts on the right locations.
Communicate progress and maximize impact
Using GIS to provide maps and data organized around the SDGs gives stakeholders transparency and guarantees that everyone has the most current insight on progress toward goals. This reduces duplication and ensures limited resources are applied to locations that can make the greatest impact for people and the planet.
