GIS Club Project Portfolio
Members of the GIS Club are wrapping up the club's summer projects. We worked with several non-profits to help them understand where their members live and to characterize their demographics. There are still opportunities for you to get involved. To learn more send an e-mail.
We also helped Professor Huxhold teach GIS skills to 7th and 8th grade students during the third summer of the Pre Urban Planners Preparing for Urban Problems (PUPS) program.
The members of the GIS Club at UWM enjoy applying their skills for the benefit of the community. The club will consider project requests from campus and non-profit community organizations. Since members' time is limited, we can undertake only a small number of projects.
There's no complicated application process, just send an e-mail with a description of the need and the benefit. We'll get back to you to discuss the project.
Some of the projects that we've done in the past are...
- Identifying prime locations for campus vegetable gardens
- Mapping the Estabrook Park disc golf course
- Analyzing solar energy for a building site in Kern Park
We'd like to talk with you about your project ideas.
