Turn scattered information into a coherent decision picture

ERC may support data review, cleaning rules, data dictionaries, statistical analysis, qualitative coding, thematic analysis, spatial analysis, interpretation, visualization design, dashboard planning, reporting, and communication products.

The analytical approach may include descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation, comparison, trend analysis, modelling suited to the data, qualitative coding, thematic synthesis, and spatial analysis. Supporting tools may include SPSS, Stata, R, and GIS software. Tool choice follows the question, data quality, user needs, and required handover.

Quality safeguards may include source inventories, reproducible cleaning rules, version control for analytical files, checks for missingness and consistency, documented assumptions, peer review, disclosure controls, and clear separation between observation and interpretation.

Maps and visualizations are built from verified source data. ERC does not use generated imagery as geographic or analytical evidence.
