> Plaza Pública is a online newspaper from Guatemala which is starting to
> work with data.  They are starting to use different sorts of data such as
> network, GIS, statistical and discourse.  They are creating interesting
> analysis.  The first incursion into data journalism has been the
> construction of an interactive map of the Guatemalan Congress, which is
> meant to provide basic information to readers on the different aspects of
> congressmen and women such as voting, district, etc. This is the link
> http://www.plazapublica.com.gt/content/el-congreso-en-datos   There is
> also in dept analysis for the more advance reader, this is an example of
> such analysis
> http://plazapublica.com.gt/content/anatomia-del-poder-femenino-en-el-congresoThis newspaper is published in Spanish, there is very little information
> written in English.  Hope you find this information useful.
