Curiosity to careers

GGI teaches students the power of GIS—using data, drones, and maps to build skills that apply across nearly every field. Students learn a new way to see the world—and find ways to reshape it. [ MORE ]

What is GIS?

Geographic Information Systems give us a new way of seeing the world. By layering data on maps, GIS reveals patterns and connections we might otherwise miss—how a disease spreads, where floods will hit hardest, the most effcient path for deliveries. GIS helps humanity make better choices for survival, fairness, and progress. [ More ]

For educators

Each day, you offer your students a way to see. GIS widens that view—linking maps and meaning, data and wonder. At GGI, our training helps teachers pass on knowledge that is the foundation of many fields. Learn about our courses. [ More ]

For parents

At GGI, your child gains more than a skill: they learn to notice, to connect, to ask better questions. GIS isn’t just for the science kid. It’s for the artist, too. And it leads to work that’s steady and deeply human. Chart your child’s course. [ More ]

For students

Ever ordered food to the right spot? That’s GIS—maps, data, and tech working together. We’ll show you how it works. Fly drones over your neighborhood or use GIS to uncover its hidden stories. See what our students have done. [ More ]

When you connect young people to an activity that’s fun and relevant to nearly any career—business, science, conservation, health care, and more—everybody wins.
