This policy note summarizes results and experiences of a poverty mapping exercise in Sri Lanka that has been conducted in close collaboration with the Department of Census and Statistics since 2003. Poverty mapping is a useful method to uncover spatial heterogeneity in poverty incidence that is prominent in Sri Lanka. This booklet provides maps of poverty estimates at subnational levels and links them with maps of remoteness and drought.
