DESCRIPTION:Open source software has grown rapidly in recent years in many 
 developed countries. Developing states especially in low income states hav
 e also seen this development. The emergence of open source software\, espe
 cially in the field of geographic information\, has created practitioners 
 and communities around these digital tools and commons. However\, the free
 dom\, free and easy access is seen by many technicians and decision-makers
  as less reliable and less efficient than proprietary software. In order t
 o know the perceptions and the level of adoption of free software in Togo\
 , we conducted a small survey among students\, governmental and civil soci
 ety actors and non professionnal cartographers. This presentation will hel
 p to highlight the importance of free software in Togo. Thus my presentati
 on will clarify the types of projects in which open source geospatial is u
 sed\, its interest for the users\, in short\, to have a clear idea on the 
 state of the open source geospatial software in Togo.
