Working Together

The Community Mapping Web pages are a collaboration involving the Association of American Geographers (AAG), The Institute for Technology Development’s Community Mapping Program (CMap), ESRI, and others. These organizations are working together to encourage community mapping programs.

We encourage you to work with others, locally or globally, to develop and implement community mapping projects. Who else in your community wants to learn more about where they live through mapping?

Consider working with the following organizations in and around your community.

• 4-H
• Association of American Geographers
• Boy Scouts of America
• Boys & Girls Clubs of America
• EarthForce
• Future Farmers of America
• Girl Scouts of America
