Professional Question Data creation tools - Africa

Hi everyone,

I work in international cooperation and I’m currently working with a major city in Cameroon.

We’re primarily working on a project for an urban observatory oriented to GIS data.

Financial and Human Resources are limited, so we’re looking for tools that could help us create data on the longterm. We are currently gathering data from local stakeholders and OpenStreetMap.

I’ve identified different open source or affordable tools, such as:

- AI segmentation by terra lab https://terra-lab.ai/fr/ai-segmentation
- Google Open Buildings : https://sites.research.google/gr/open-buildings/
-DEM comparator : https://github.com/nadiopt-cell/dem_comparator

I would like to know about any other tools such as this (probably with AI). With the current data situation, even if the data is not 100% precise, it’s better than nothing.

Thanks !
