[OSGeo-Discuss] GIS Data Template for Cities, Towns and Communities (e.g Chigago)

[George Silva]

I'm involved at the moment with building large cadastral models for cities.
This is a subject that always interested me, and I guess we could gather
around a few people to work on models, example data and example software.

This would be a great initiative to show counties (cities in Brazil - I'm
not sure about the administrative equivalent) that OSS can help them in an
effective way.

Actually, this common models idea is around for a long time (cadastral,
oil&gas, environment, etc). If anyone is still interested I can give some
contributions.
