The geographic information services ICT Building Blocks enables various applications to find and associate geographic locations with the identity of a person (eg patient, doctor, farmer, agricultural extensionist), facility (eg hospital, ambulance, lab, seed production facility), piece of equipment (eg ventilator, vaccine container), or location (eg water source, agricultural field). This association may also have a timestamp of when it was acquired and be tagged with a unique digital identifier. Applications or components using geographical information services can collect, share and use the temporal and spatial information with other applications, such as map repositories and data visualization tools, where it can be displayed on geographical maps. The data can also be combined with other data such as population, surveillance, or supply chain data sets to enable geospatial and geotemporal analysis. Country’s differing data privacy policies may affect how much information geographical information services can gather.
