Hi, welcome to OSM! I'm afraid your answer is too broad to answer meaningfully. If you could explain in a bit more detail what you want to do, and what questions you need answered, you're more likely to get a good answer.

There are no "official OSM experts", since this is a (mostly) volunteer organization.

However, there are several ways to get in touch with people who know about OSM:

Well, the "map of user groups" is more german centric. But you can also use the "ITO OSM Mapper" tool to see a list of contributors around a limited area (you can sort the names by edits)(tool is free but subscription required)(http://www.itoworld.com/static/openstreetmap_tools/osm_mapper.html)

This question is better directed to the OSM Latin America mailing list

I'm not sure, but I think one of the go-to people in Chile does something very similar to this question. See http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Zambelli%20Limitada and http://www.zambelli.cl/
