In 2004 the United Nations Secretariat published a\u00a0pdf<\/a>\u00a0entitled \u201cUnited Nations Expert Group Meeting to Review Critical Issues Relevant to the Planning of the 2010 Round of Population and Housing Censuses\u201d. Subtitled \u201cIntegration of GPS,Digital Imagery and GIS with Census Mapping\u201d On page 2 it says \u201c4. The census symposium, held in New York in 2001, provided a comprehensive review of the significant capabilities of GPS, Satellite imagery, GIS and handheld computers, and their relevance\u00a0to census mapping operations. \u201d This study is about GPS mapping during the census process.<\/p>\n A Similar pdf <\/a>\u00a0from the UN Dept. of Economic and Social Affairs Statistic Division says that the aim\u00a0of the meeting was to \u201cset priorities and propose concrete outputs for the developement of the 2010 World<\/strong>\u00a0Population and Housing Census Programme.\u201d The meeting was attended\u00a0by representatives from 18 countries including the US who was represented\u00a0by Jay K. Keller, Chief of International<\/strong> Relations, US Census Bureau.<\/p>\n In July 2006 NPR carried the story, Census Bureau Adopts GPS to Find American Homes<\/a>, where\u00a0it states, \u201cTwo-and-a-half years from now, in early 2009, the Census Bureau plans to send an army of 100,000 temporary workers down every street and dusty, dirt road in America. They will be armed\u00a0with handheld GPS devices. Robert LaMacchia, head of the Census Bureau\u2019s geography division, says they\u2019ll capture the latitude and longitude of the front door of every house, apartment and improvised shelter they find. \u201cWe will actually knock on doors and look for hidden housing units,\u201d he says. \u201cWe will find converted garages; from the outside, it may not look like anybody lives there.\u201d But census workers will add each dwelling, legal or not, to the Census Bureau\u2019s Master Address File. Recent proposed budget cuts have put part of this plan in jeopardy. But if Congress restores the money, the census will end up with the geographic coordinates \u2014 accurate to within 10 feet \u2014 for about 110 million residences. \u201c<\/p>\n Several defense contractors were awarded contracts to help carry out this operation in the US. From a $500 Million dollar contract awarded to Lockheed Martin, see link<\/a>, to HARRIS<\/a> who supplied the GPS handheld devices used by census workers.<\/p>\n The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization Act facilitates the government use of unmanned spy planes in US airspace and approves deployment of 30,000 by 2020. It also requires the FAA to rush a plan to have as many in the air as possible within 9 months. These drones have been used for spy and assassination missions worldwide.According to an article in Wikipedia<\/a>\u00a0U.S. Air Force (USAF) Chief of Staff General T. Michael Moseley said, \u201cWe\u2019ve moved from using UAVs primarily in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance roles before Operation Iraqi Freedom, to a true hunter-killer role with the Reaper.\u201d<\/p>\n
