  1. GeoSpatial Analysis In The K-12 Social Studies Education

  2. What is GeoSpatial Analysis? • Geospatial analysis is an approach to applying statistical analysis and other informational techniques to data which has a geographical or geospatial aspect.

  3. What is GIS? A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present all types of spatial or geographical data.

  4. Geospatial Analysis promote the following skills: • Geospatial Analysis promote Inquiry, the art of asking for information. • Students develop expertise in spatial reasoning, problem definition, problem solving.

  5. Everybody is using GeoSpatial Analysis: Common applications: • Mapquest • Google maps • Trulia Real Estate

  15. Citizens Against Rail Taxes • Tax impacts of this rail to Austin citizens, 99% plus who will never ride it and reap zero benefits from it while continuing to be stuck in growing congestion due to the wasteful spending of more than $2 billion tax dollars. • $36 million in annual operations for this rail.

  16. Austin Proposition 1 • Austin is the fastest-growing large metro area in America. • Austin traffic congestion now ranks as the 4th worst in America. • A rush hour trip in Austin now takes over 40% longer than a non-rush hour trip. • Austin drivers now spend an estimated 40 hours per year stuck in traffic. • If growth continues as projected, our area population will double to 3.9 million before 2040, putting as many as 1 million new cars on our roads in the foreseeable future.
