GeoSUR Program

Ensuring geographic information is readily available is the mission of the GeoSUR Program, a regional initiative to integrate and disseminate spatial data in Latin America and the Caribbean. Since the Program’s inception in 2007, GeoSUR has grown to serve a large audience interested in development objectives, both regionally and within individual countries.

GeoSUR develops geospatial services on the Web which enable users to locate, view, analyze, and obtain spatial information. Access to these services is open and free and no special software is required to use them.
