The Census Bureau’s StatVentures initiative invites innovators to participate in Phase 2 of the Address Geolocation Challenge, offering up to $250,000 in prizes. This phase focuses on developing implementation roadmaps for technologies or data sources that improve the accuracy, efficiency, and granularity of geolocating residential addresses in rural and remote areas. 

Ideal participants are U.S.-based non-governmental entities or individuals who can demonstrate feasibility of implementation, a clear path forward, and a compelling value proposition. Up to six winners will receive monetary prizes and the opportunity to compete in Phase 3. Submissions are open to all, including those who did not participate in Phase 1.

Applications for Phase 2 of the challenge are due December 13th, 2024. For more details, or to begin the application process visit the challenge website.
