The GIS 4 Montana initiative is a State-wide K-12 license for ArcGIS, made available free of charge to Montana’s public schools through an agreement between the SpatialSci Project, The University of Montana, GeoEssentials, and ESRI. Every K-12 public school in the state of Montana has the option to capitalize on this program that includes the latest ESRI GIS software.

ArcGIS Geographic Information System (GIS) is a mapping software that links information about where things are with information about what things are. It is a tool used for manipulating, creating, analyzing, and displaying spatial data. With GIS, teachers can provide students an opportunity and motive for investigating more deeply, exploring more completely, and thinking more creatively about the world we live in. GIS technology is appropriate for any age.

If you feel your school would be interested in participating in the GIS 4 MT program, e-mail Jeff Crews at jeff@spatialsci.com.
