WASHINGTON — New Light Technologies Inc. (NLT) is partnering with NoBrainerData to develop and provide clients with innovative data-driven solutions in the field of predictive demography and population dynamics.
NLT is a leading provider of data analytics, geospatial, and scientific consulting services, including in disaster management. NoBrainerData was founded by a former Chief of the Population and Development Branch of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and supports governments, firms, and organizations in improving public policies, programs, and laws through data-driven innovations and results-oriented research.
Together, NLT and NoBrainerData will provide organizations and governments with solutions for effective use of non-traditional, near-real-time, high-granularity population estimates. This includes demographic statistical data analysis; forecasting, visualizing, and mapping complex demographic data (including 3D population mapping); and developing web-based platforms for demographic data sharing.
NLT's Chief Scientist notes that more and more data are being collected every day at unprecedented scale and in new forms — and that the challenge lies in making sense of it all and converting it into meaningful information that can save or improve people's lives. Understanding the unique demographic characteristics of populations in regions that have traditionally lacked up-to-date demographic data is key to a better, more sustainable human society.
NoBrainerData's founder explains that together, the teams will provide innovative, non-traditional tools that can help evaluate the impacts of poverty-reduction programs; determine the readiness of health services to face pandemics and other global health challenges; map the characteristics of populations exposed to natural and man-made disasters; improve census cartography and data collection; and make demographic data more accessible and usable — helping governments be more cost-efficient and business investments more effective.
