Effectively managing a school district requires a geographic
perspective and geographic tools.
Geographic information ranges in scale from the community and its characteristics to the micro geography of a school
and its components. Students, for instance, have geographic locations, including home addresses, homeroom numbers,
and the buses they ride and unique data such as student information system (SIS) standards of grade level, subjects,
grades, attendance, test scores, lunch programs and special needs.
Operating schools and districts also requires management of buildings and grounds, ensuring safety and transporting
students and materials. Doing so efficiently requires integrating and sharing information for better planning and decision
making. GIS provides solutions to help administrators accomplish
thesegoals.

provides software solutions to schools K-12 and colleges and universities.

hardware, software and data for capturing, managing,
analyzing and displaying all forms of geographically
referenced information.
GIS provides methods to view, understand, question, interpret and visualize data in many ways that
reveal relationships, patterns and trends in the form of maps, globes, reports and charts. GIS helps
answer questions and assists in solving problems by looking at data in a way that is quickly understood
and easily shared.
