Geotagging is an essential component in the conduct of 2024 Population Census and Community Based Monitoring System (POPCEN-CBMS) operations, allowing the capture and collection of relevant and timely information about households/housing units, service facilities, and government projects collected at the local level. PSA remains committed to advancing its data collection and mapping capabilities to better serve the public and contribute to informed decision-making across all levels of government.
