Scattered across portals and PDFs

Census India publishes Excel files. NFHS-5 has its own portal. NJDG is a separate site. Night lights need NASA credentials. Getting district data means bouncing between a dozen sources — none of which talk to each other.

One grant map takes half a day

Your program officer needs a stunting map for three states. That means downloading shapefiles, opening QGIS, joining CSV data, fixing mismatched district names, styling colours — all before a single insight is found.

No way to see patterns across indicators

Which districts have high stunting AND low institutional births AND poor sanitation? Answering that means cross-referencing four separate datasets in Excel. You don't need a spreadsheet — you need a map.
