The application “Panorama of census data 1991-2011” was initially funded by the programme “Dynamic management of social databases and cartographic illustrations — SoDaMap of the Ministry of Education, which is materialized by EKKE in cooperation with the Institute for Information Systems of the Research Centre Athina, in the framework of the National-wide Action “Development Proposals of Research Entities – KRIPIS” of the Ministry of Education (National Strategic Reference Framework for 2007-2013).
The latest updated version of the application is funded by the program “REDI: Research, Training and Infrastructure: the triangulation of the axes for the strategic development of EKKE” implemented by EKKE and funded by the Operational Programme “Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship and Innovation”, in the context of the “Strategic Action for the Development of Research and Technological Institutions”, NSRF 2014-2020.

A group of ELSTAT employees participate in the project’s tasks, monitor the evolution of the project and contribute actively to shaping the final product.
The current project continues the effort undertaken in 2002 by another EKKE team with much less human and financial resources. The database part of that initial project was funded by the Ministry of Development –EPAN program (competitiveness)– while the development of the mapping application was funded by the Ministry of Education through a project of the University of Thessaly – program PYTHAGORAS II. Hannibal Economou was the developer of the first database application, while Stavros Sirigos, PhD candidate at the University of Thessaly, developed the first mapping application (Cartotheque). The contribution of Ioanna Maravelaki, Head of Informatics Division of ELSTAT at the time, was decisive for the implementation of the project.
