Project Examples
Requirements
Starting in January, multiple teams of students can spend 40-50 hours per team working for your organization.
With your data, multiple teams of students will create maps, reports, and provide analysis. In addition, students can craft a Story Map for your organization, if interested. Such a story map can be shared with the public or be used for internal purposes only.
Generally speaking, the following are skills that students are able to employ with your project:
- Create, modify and present spatial data.
- Create and edit Geodatabases feature classes.
- Apply the GIS analysis to natural resource management modelling.
- Blogging, basic programming and entry level web design.
