The Global Health Africa Blog recently featured the work of the USAID
| DELIVER PROJECT on improving delivery of health products to people
in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. The project devised an innovative strategy
to create a digitized road network using Global Positioning System
(GPS) data and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology. Thanks
to their efforts, logistics for health commodities have been
streamlined, helping to reduce travel time and better track inventory.
