@vb_jens gave a very meaningful presentation at #CANSSI on the #officialstatistics data ecosystem in Canada, specifically for the georeferenced data, and how the different APIs can talk to one another and be piped https://mountainmath.ca/canssi/

The part that is generalizable to other applications is `library(tongfen)` to get the least common denominator to the geographies like census tracts from different vintages (or I would guess census tracts to postal codes).
