Il team di WaterAid ha recentemente sviluppato un tool di mappatura chiamato Water Point Mapper. Vengono usati dati inseriti in un foglio di calcolo Excel e utilizzate le macro per generare i file KML.

"The tool is now widely used by WaterAid country programs and partner organizations across sub-Saharan Africa to map rural water points. The tool empowers communities to manage their water sources and offers district level planning and resource allocation.
The Mapper can generate a range of point based and area based maps for monitoring a wide selection of status indicators. The list includes water source coverage (with and without functionality), functionality, water source type, revenue collection and access distance."
