RezMapper Objectives

• Collaborative effort with Sinte Gleska University
  and the Rosebud Lakota Reservation
• Create awareness of Geo-Technologies for diverse
  audiences ranging from middle school students
  through tribal planning and resource management
  entities
• Deliver spatial data in a manner that is easily
  accessed, understood and associated with other
  relevant information
• Integrate with other enabling technologies such
  as the Internet, GPS and mobile devices
• Provide for customization with different people
  contributing to the Community GIS
• Example of Curriculum and Application development
  using a suite of technologies
