Data Lab
Cairo & Beyond
We've been directly responsible for mapping over 10 African mega-cities public transport networks. Additionally we provided technical assistance to partners in East Asia using our tools to accomplish the same.

Open Data, Open Software
Our Data Lab utilizes Free and Open source Software tools (FOSS) such as QGIS and OpenTripPlanner, as well as open data sources, to create the knowledge products and do the work we do. We make sure we give back to the community by openining the datasets we collect ourselves, and the software tools we develop.

Context Aware
Our team experiences the city firsthand as daily public transport users who know the local context and language. This lived experience shapes how we design data systems, conduct analyses, and deliver technical work that truly reflects the realities on the ground.
GeoPortal 🚦
We host our own open data portal with the latest data we acquire for the benefit of researchers, students and the community.
