Here, I describe awards available through the Cartography Specialty Group, the GIS Specialty Group, and the Remote Sensing Specialty Group. I also describe the poster competition that is sponsored by all three of these specialty groups. The papers must be based on original research done as an undergraduate or graduate, and the research must have been completed within the last academic year. Topics are not restricted to work derived from theses or dissertations. Papers must be written entirely by the applicant.
All students are eligible to apply.
Awards are based on review of research proposals. In the past, grant money has been used to buy data sets, produce maps, and pay research subjects for participation in experiments. All masters students are eligible to apply. Fill the form out completely. Note that the applicant and the advisor are jointly responsible for the accuracy and validity of all information on the application.
