  2. Development of Integrated Multi Information System (IMIS) Briefly, the development of the Kenyan IMIS encompass 4 steps: • Development of population database • Development of GIS database • Integration of population and GIS database • Creation of local and wide area network

  3. Structures of the 1999 and 1989 Kenya Population and Housing Census Database Country Province A Province B.. Division 1 Division 2.. Location 1 Location 2… Sub-location 1 Sub-location 2… EA1 EA2…

  4. Utility of Some Key Census Products The census products generated from the integration of census data and survey data have been used for various purposes:

  5. Utility of Some Key Census Products(continue…) • Development Planning Through the integration of population census data, household based data and administrative records data, it has been possible to generate: • Poverty maps for Kenya. • Distribution map by key socio-economic attributes • Map out: • High HIV/AIDS prevalence areas. This information has been useful for resource allocation, mounting special preventive programmes and for targeting vulnerable population sub-groups. • Informal settlements / slums • Generation of monitorable development indicators for monitoring and evaluation of national development programmes.

  6. Utility of Some Key Census Products(continue…) • Facilitation of In-Depth Census Analysis Kenya has in the past experience continuous administrative boundary changes as a result it has not been possible to monitor demographic profiles for the country. • Consequently, through use of the GIS products, it has been possible to reconstruct population profiles for 1979 and 1989 population censuses using the 1999 Administrative area structures as a base. This information is important for deriving fertility and mortality estimates, which are key inputs into population projection model.

  7. Utility of Some Key Census Products(continue…) • Monitoring and Evaluation Mapping of high crime spot areas using crime data generated through the law enforcement agencies - police, law courts, etc.,

  8. Utility of Some Key Census Products(continue…) • Administrative, political and social arena Products facilitated quick and effective responses to issues related to: • Parliamentary questions • Boundary disputes, • Queries on population matters, • Allocation of local authority transfer funds and other uses.

  9. Constraints • High maintenance cost of the Network • Procurement of the GIS software • Inadequate skills on optimal use of GPS • Delays in the digitization of the EAs
