Engaging Maps
Children learn in a variety of ways, but visual learning is especially effective. Using maps in the classroom illustrates geographic context, helping students connect lessons with real places.
Invigorating STEM Curriculum
GIS supports STEM learning with integrative, project-based experiences, providing context to education. Spatial analysis and critical-thinking skills prepare young minds to succeed in course work, further education, and life.
Campus Sustainability
School administrators use GIS for smarter planning and sustainability - saving time, controlling costs, and improving safety. Campus maps and analytics help manage facilities, operations, assets, work orders, and security.
