Find the survey behind the statistics

1 November 2026The OrionGIS team

OrionGIS now lists survey and census studies from African statistics offices' microdata catalogues, with a link to each publisher.

Behind most national statistics is a survey or a census. Statistics offices catalogue these studies in microdata libraries, and from OrionAI 2.21.0 OrionGIS lists them too, starting with 17 African offices.

Each study has its own page: what was surveyed, where and when, who ran it, and how to get the data. The page links straight to the publisher, whose own access terms apply. OrionGIS doesn't copy microdata. It helps you find the study and see the area it covers, next to the published tables and maps for that country.
