About GIS 4 K-12

“GIS 4 Kids” is a program developed by VERTICES under president and founder Dr. Wansoo Im. “GIS 4 Kids” was born out of our love for GIS, and our desire to help broaden the benefits of GIS to all students. We are a group of kids who decided to get together and do something about spreading GIS awareness and benefits. We create GIS applications that will provide increased interactive learning and that will improve geographic and technological literacy. We are committed to making GIS applications available to all kids so that they can take part in the exciting frontier GIS brings to discovering their world!

How it Works:

Schools who need to utilize GIS for their curriculum are welcome to use our existing applications. For school districts who need customized GIS applications, we can offer to develop such applications at a significant discount. Alternately, we encourage schools to apply for grant funding, and we at VERTICES will be glad to assist with your grant application.
