Justice Mapping

Justice Mapping is a process that uses geographic information systems (GIS) to analyze and visualize the distribution of resources, opportunities, or disparities across different communities. It helps identify areas facing social, economic, or environmental challenges by mapping data such as crime rates, access to healthcare, education, or housing. This visual approach allows policymakers, community organizations, and stakeholders to better understand inequities, allocate resources effectively, and target interventions where they are needed most, promoting fairer and more equitable access to opportunities and services.
