This paper gives a short overview of a project on Geographic Information Retrieval in developing countries in the form of an experience report based in Honduras. It provides some insights into encountered challenges of resource discovery, and georeferencing due to low Web coverage and informal location references as well as tested or proposed solutions to address them, including search via alternative means such as social networks.
