The Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure 2010 was published by the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (NISRA) in May 2010 and supersedes a previous 2005 measure.

It identifies small area concentrations of multiple deprivation across Northern Ireland and updates and replaces the NIMDM 2005 as the official measure of deprivation in Northern Ireland.
