[Qgis-user] GIS Data for Brazil

[George Silva]

Joseph,

You can look at the IBGE website which has a FTP server with that data. (
ftp://geoftp.ibge.gov.br/). Demographics can be found in IBGEs website too,
but it's a complex tool, called SIDRA, which can cross data and generate
reports and export all of that in CSV form (http://www.sidra.ibge.gov.br/).

Take you time. The data is there, it's just a bit hard to find.
