NEW DATA: We've published 2 important datasets on travel networks in DRC! The first dataset maps road and path locations, while the second helps to calculate travel times for walking and/or motorized travel on those paths and roads.

🚗Commuting zones represent areas where we spend most of our time based on where we live & work.

🛣️Our newest dashboard developed w/ @Meta's Data for Good explores how road coverage compares to population in commuting zones worldwide.
