Geographic Institute Agustín Codazzi, Colombian cartographic institute
The Geographic Institute Agustín Codazzi is a national mapping agency in Bogotá, Colombia, responsible for creating and maintaining geographic data and maps. The institution produces cartographic materials, geographic information systems, and territorial surveys that serve the country's planning and development needs.
The institute was established to systematically map Colombia and develop scientific geographic knowledge for the nation. Over time it grew into a primary source for territorial information and geographic data that supports national development.
This is a government agency that may require advance notice for visits, as it is not a typical tourist destination. Check beforehand about access and visiting options, as regular walk-in visits might not always be possible.
