Session
Harnessing the Power of Geospatial Data and Urban Dynamic Mapping for Smarter and Inclusive City Development by @ThisIsPLACE & @EnabelinRwanda.
@KasparKundert, highlights the pivotal role of geospatial data, comprising 80% of all data, in advancing smart cities and enhancing the quality of life.
The main challenge in Africa isn't technology or expertise but rather economic sustainability. Kaspar's solution involves two key elements: community funding and data licensing.
By engaging communities in funding geospatial data projects and implementing effective data licensing, he aims to secure financial stability and promote the sustainable use of this valuable resource.
