In the vast Democratic Republic of Congo, managing and updating health system geographic data is a major challenge. While the National Health Information System Directorate (DSNIS) uses DHIS2, it falls short in addressing key issues of data validation, control, and coordination. To overcome this, DSNIS adopted IASO, Bluesquare’s open-source georegistry, through the USAID PROSANI project.
With the addition of Entities and Workflows, IASO can today handle nutritional programmes tracking, and is currently used for the tracking of children under five and pregnant or breastfeeding women by the World Food Programme, helping to ensure they receive the necessary nutritional support.
IASO is an open-source platform for digitalizing health campaigns with geospatial precision. It supports planning, field execution, monitoring, and data reuse across campaigns. User-friendly and configurable without coding, it empowers national health teams from immunization to malaria, nutrition and NTDs interventions.
In 2024, Bluesquare worked hand in hand with the National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) in Côte d’Ivoire to digitalize the microplanning, household enumeration, and distribution processes of Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) through the IASO digital platform.
Many health systems struggle with visibility on vehicle usage, delivery patterns, and overall supply chain efficiency. IASO’s entities and workflow features provide a powerful and flexible solution to track and optimize the distribution of medical and pharmaceutical products.
In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), fragmented health facility data poses significant challenges to resource allocation and service delivery. IASO is implemented in the DRC to identify health facilities location and their available equipment and improve healthcare access assessment.
In Cameroon, the micro-planning of vaccination campaigns has traditionally been a manual, often cumbersome process. The digitization of this process, particularly through tools like IASO, marks a significant advancement in enhancing the efficiency and impact of these campaigns.
As part of efforts to improve healthcare coverage in Niger, the georegistry features of IASO have played a crucial role in identifying and managing 329 community health workers in the Tahoua and Dosso regions in 2024.
IASO has partnered with LifeNet International to develop a unified M&E platform that spans six countries—Uganda, Kenya, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Malawi, and Ghana. This platform integrates geo-structured data collection, decentralized user management, and seamless DHIS2 integration, empowering LifeNet to improve healthcare coordination across its extensive network.
Bluesquare has brought forward IASO’s advanced geographic data management capabilities to develop a more integrated approach to managing polio vaccination campaigns across Africa with the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI).
In fields like public health, access to comprehensive geographic data is crucial for designing targeted and effective interventions. That’s exactly the need Bluesquare set out to meet with IASO, its geographic data management platform now rolled out in 14 countries. Let’s dive into the 5 essential features that make IASO a go-to georegistry solution.
DHIS2 is the world’s most widely used platform for national health information systems. IASO builds on its foundation and adds agility, field-level precision, and advanced workflows needed for complex operational contexts. Learn more about the differences and complementarities of these two platforms.
