These maps will show the locations where there is access to wood for cooking, fuel and financial services and conversely the areas that haven't got access. The map should include population figures and ideally the number of people who do or don't have access to these staples.

The map shows the situational information on the access to key services. It also helps to inform the needs and required actions of an actor or actors.
Use a reference basemap and include the locations where you can/can't (or unconfirmed) access to different key services such as fuel and finance.
Locations of fuel including petrol, diesel, wood, etc.
Financials services such as banks and ATMs - OpenStreetMap.
Logistics cluster
This map should identify the level of access to different inputs by administrative area - e.g. Seed, tools, livestock assistance, fishing nets/kit. The different inputs lends itself to creating a series of maps.

This is a refinement of a typical who-what-where map and looks at the locations of the agencies working in the sector for that response.

It describes who is working, on what and where. It provides an operational picture and the aim is that it helps prevent a duplication of effort by agencies and target the gaps of a response.
Use a simple basemap and include key operational centres, where actors are working, what they are doing and what has been done at a specific point in time. Mixture of maps and charts based on survey responses.

It helps identify priority areas and where nutritional and food distribution is needed.

These maps show which markets are functioning or not functioning. Use symbology to represent which key staples exist and possibly graduated size to indicate prices (or trends).

The map identifies which markets and staples are affected and helps to inform the needs and required actions by actors.
A series of maps per staple or a combination visualising markets that may/are failing. Markets throughout a city larger geographic area combine and cluster to show hotspots. Could then indicate issues within a region rather than just at an individual market.
Rapid market assessment output
The map shows where the key markets are, if they functioning, what prices can you get and help with the identification of any challenges or bottlenecks.

Identifies where people will struggle access food and aso the potential quality of the food available Will support prioritisation of areas and the type of response required.
Use a basemap or map that shows the administration boundaries and show key markets by score (graduated symbology).

Comparing the current situation with scores helps identify how flexible populations are to adaptation - wider choice of livelihood options or coping strategies.

Response actors
The map may indicate area resilience and allows actors to prioritise response based on how easily an area can switch to an alternative livlihood source.
Use simple basemap to show current the current food security scores. Overlay with information on alternative livelihood options. Could do some analysis to identify which areas are more/less adaptable which can the help prioritise where actors need to go first for assessment.
Emergency mapping market analysis can be used to get a deeper understanding of the critical typology of food security crisis and is conducted at community level. Examples of these 'maps' tend to be more like flow diagrams of the market system rather than spatial representations of the data. Key is to pull out key issues/partial disruption or complete disruption within the market system. Outputs from this can be mapped onto other monitoring indicators.

EMMA output
Varied skills and data is needed to build scenarios. There is a need to identify what the current baseline, forecast (seasonal and exceptional) and drivers are and then decide upon the potential scenarios to see if data can be modelled to demonstrate changes.

As required, but they can be useful to do near the start of a response and thereafter to adjust against real time feedback.

The descisions made provide opportunities to test out scenarios from existing baseline and trend data to help humanitarians plan long term for where food distribution/cash programmes or suporting services may need revising in the short to medium term.
A series of maps and products can be created which start with the existing baseline and trends and used to model thresholds of parameters if either trends continue or possible critical events (mass immigration to an area for example) could disrupt the eisting food security situation.
