This
site was developed by educators for educators and
students. We want to make educators and
students aware of these two
new
emerging technologies, Geographical Information System (GIS),
Global Positioning System (GPS), and Remote Sensing (RS).
We also want to provide
a site where educators can find useful links, lesson plans and
find classroom resources and ideas they can use with their projects.
