00:06Through the integration of geospatial economic and social data sets, we will enable smarter
00:12decision making, weather and disaster preparedness, urban planning, and resource management.
00:21The Central Statistical Office is preparing a geospatial exercise to begin mapping communities

00:49in real time, identifying gaps, and importantly, attracting public-private partnership and even
