Geospatial information

The Statistics Division of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) leads the development of technological solutions for data visualization in the territory through the information dissemination platforms available at ECLAC. In this context, one of the Division’s most significant tasks has been the incorporation of the geospatial dimension into the CEPALSTAT platform, which allows the georeferenced visualization of statistical data disaggregated according to different levels of spatial disaggregation. Also noteworthy is the implementation of the CEPALGEO platform, consisting of a set of technological tools —catalogues, viewers and geospatial services— that allow remote access to a wide range of geospatial information products and their use to support decision-making and public policymaking in Latin America and the Caribbean.
