We are all in the same boat when it comes to data in India and that is why

I think the work you guys do is phenomenal. If only I had the same IT

Hello all,
Nice enlightening discussion with a little sparks,
A small thumbnail photo of the member may help reduce sparks because then
you create an image of that person in your mind based on the photo. BTW my

Any way to add
I am in. I love small and targeted meetups/hackathons.

Sharad,
Sorry about my tone; I get excited/ pushy when it comes to geospatial data.
In my experience, you have to ask, ask again, and keep asking (like I did
with you until you finally responded). I guess I should only ask once, and
if you don't respond, then you never will...

Dear Eric:
Here is my understanding:
1. The census does not create any category, be it tehsil, block or
mandal. These are statutory or administrative categories created under
