The experience of organizing the two recent SotM LATAM (2024, 2025) has been both rewarding and enriching, both personally and communally, and has also allowed us to take the temperature of the OSM Latam community in various aspects. After collecting, analyzing, and comparing data, here we bring you a brief report of these events that somewhat summarizes the main characteristics of the Latin American OSM community. After this analysis, it was interesting to subsequently attempt a comparison with the SotM Global event and find some substantial differences. This led us to outline hypotheses as to why we believe such differences exist.
