A visual mapping and analysis tool for prepositioned relief stock

The name STOCKHOLM stands for STOCK of Humanitarian Organisations Logistics Mapping. The name refers to the Swedish capital, composed of 14 separate islands that are linked through over 50 bridges. This reinforces the overall ideas of exchange, connection and collaboration that drive the ESUPS project. The platform offers humanitarian actors access to a visual representation of prepositioned disaster relief items. Users are able to filter stock data based on country, province, or any other cross-geographical area. Stock data can also be filtered by the organisation holding the stock, cluster, and item.
