4-H Geospatial Science 4-H'ers are having a blast exploring geospacial sciences from simple Geocaching (using GPS receivers to look for hidden treasure boxes all around the world) to complex community mapping projects. New local clubs are forming as a result of a generous grant opportunity sponsored by Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI). The result is 4-H'ers are learning to use Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers to collect spatial data, plot results on detailed maps, and provide useful resources to community planners.
