Optimizing the UNMAS System for Mine Action Reporting and Tracking (SMART) in Iraq

The objective of this project was to fully operationalize the UNMAS System for Mine Action Reporting and Tracking (SMART), maintain its components and further develop the system. SMART was designed to implement the integrated and harmonized information management approach of UNMAS’ Global IM Solution (IMS). Using advanced data processing, GIS mapping, and statistical analysis, we also developed digital tools that improved hazard identification, operational planning, and risk mitigation in areas liberated from ISIL. Our work facilitated informed decision-making for humanitarian actors, ensuring safer and more effective explosive hazard management across Iraq.
