Delaware's GIS Day 2009 is gearing up for an exciting day at the Air Mobility Command Museum in Dover. A Geographic Information System (GIS) is the set of tools used to relate information to geography and is an integral part of the technology platform used today. Applying a geographical perspective to life situations by showing relationships of people, places and environments, aids decision making in business, government, education and the world.

Download the 2009 Delaware GIS Day Flyer and share it with everyone, then come to our evening event for a fun learning experience!

Selected fifth grades classes will be visiting the Earth Balloon, Neal Nichols Geography Game Show, Aerial Photography by the Delaware Geographic Alliance, Flight Simulator, and experience a hands-on GIS exercise to discover a mystery animal that will be placed in a zoo, and more!

From 5:00p.m. - 7:30pm come visit us at the Dover Air Command Mobility Museum to see some of the outstanding exhibits listed above and more. This event is FREE and open to all! Don't miss out on this great experience!
