First georeferenced map of campus!

Happy New Year.  It is with great enthusiasm that I share with you a student project completed in Fall 2013.  Environmental Studies seniors, Brenna Richards and Ashley Storms created a georeferenced map of campus.  In it they included walkways and sidewalk, as well as location of buildings and parking lots. This map will be tremendously useful to all campus users as we make changes to campus and catalog them. Thank you, ladies, for a job well done!
Now it's up to the rest of us to populate this map with Sustainability hotspots: bike racks, bike paths, recycling bins, compost drop-off locations, solar panels... Dream big.


If you would like a copy of the map, please contact the authors (richardsb@ripon.edu, stormsa@ripon.edu) or the Sustainability Coordinator via the website.
