 This year marks 10 years since the land portal's inception. We started off a decade ago as a small UN partnership project working to get the overview of land information onto one easy to use platform. It was no easy feat, but since then, we have evolved from a knowledge gateway into one of the main actors working to democratize the land data ecosystem globally. Let us now take you through our 10-year journey with us. At the land portal's beginning, we were a small team. The information on land at this point was vast and abundant, but dispersed across the web. The goal of our work was ambitious, yet simple, and aimed to be in service of the land community. The land portal was to serve as an aggregator, bringing all information on land into one easy to access place. In 2014, the land portal matures from a project to an independent organization. The land portal team begins to grow into a dedicated group of professionals. We go from being solely a gateway and start working on open data technologies and innovations. In January 2018, we have a brand new look and feel. Our quick growth precipitated a need to restructure and present the wealth of information now on the land portal in ways that were more intuitive. With a fresh new logo that emphasizes our links to innovation and a restructured website that is more intuitive, we emphasize our continuous growth and commitment to improve our services. Today, we are still a small and dedicated team, but we've moved from being a gateway to becoming the main actor working to democratize the land data ecosystem and ensure data will be used to catalyze our collective work to improve land governance. Looking ahead, we are committed to continue finding new and innovative ways to make data more inclusive and used. Everybody digests and understands data in their own way. It is our mission to find methods to guide our diverse audience through the enormous wealth of land data available today. We want to introduce you to two of these exciting new initiatives and invite you to take a tour of the land portal's newest products. Did you know that we are 22 times more likely to remember a story than a simple statistic? Data stories are a great way to tell the narrative and context behind the data and to help an audience beyond data scientists and analysts to understand data by storifying it. This particular data story was developed with our colleagues at the CSIR in Pretoria in South Africa. It focuses on the evolution of informal settlements in the country. To understand where we are now, we need to know where we came from. This data story starts with text, images of videos to demonstrate South Africa's complex history and its effect on housing. Data is used to illustrate the story through compelling visualizations that take the user through the story step by step. Another powerful means to illustrate the pace of emerging informal settlements in South Africa is by showing the user the changes with various aerial shots from satellite imagery. We believe such data stories will increase nuanced understanding of complex land issues, not only within the land community, but also beyond. Stay tuned for more exciting data stories in the months to come. Another exciting new development in our journey is the beta launch of our brand new Geoportal. The Geoportal responds not only to our user's repeated requests to go beyond country borders with our data, but is also a natural progression in our mission to democratize the land data ecosystem. Making sense of polygons and spatial coordinates is mostly left to data scientists and geographers, but visualizing data on a map will also considerably help non-GIS experts to understand and digest data more easily. With our Geoportal, they now have a tool to do this. The Geoportal allows users to display and overlay both statistical and geospatial data on the map and edit their own data visualizations. We are very grateful for the generous support of the Omidyar network and for our colleagues at Twente University and Cadastra International, who have advised us along the way. The beta version of the Geoportal is now online for you to interact with at lamportal.org slash Geoportal. In these last 10 years, the lamportal has grown from being simply a gateway to better access land information to a trusted knowledge broker focusing on data use and impact, serving an audience of no less than 50,000 unique visitors per month. On behalf of the team and the board of directors of the lamportal foundation, thank you all for your continued support to the lamportal. And we look forward to continued collaboration to achieve our common mission, securing land rights for all.
