Hi there, I wanted to share with you guys that we are preparing together with many other grassroot and mapping communities a statement <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z-ucRexw4O_QutvV9sUoHMQyTh7yom4Omp3ScgTYre8/edit?usp=sharing>on the integration of statistical and geospatial data - portraying the civil society standpoint - to all national statistics offices, including Stats Can, all of which will gather in Aguascalientes, Mexico under the Conference of the Statistics for the Americas <https://cea.cepal.org/9/en/programme/presentation-and-discussion-substantive-issue-towards-integration-statistical-and> umbrella next week.
This is totally related to the #osmgeoweek, where at least in Canada and Mexico <http://osmgeoweek.org/event/aguascalientes/> , we will be working to demonstrate it is possible to map all buildings of the territory in a census modality, i.e. covering the whole country. For those who don't know us, we are a geo hackers community from Colombia and neighbouring countries <http://www.geocensos.com/> working on open geospatial data in several countries in the region of central america and northern south america. We are partnering in several global events like the Geo Awareness Week, the World Data Forum <https://undataforum.org/WorldDataForum/harnessing-census-data-collection-with-citizen-participation-in-the-sdgs/> and usually lecture at the SotM US on statistical and geospatial projects <https://youtu.be/HrGIA5Zzpc0> . Please let us know , if you agree with the above statement, so we can count on board with OSM CA for supporting our statement , visualizing your name and identifiers together with other National Latin American base communities .
