Our mission is to facilitate the practical use of Earth
systems science and technology, and help meet the growing demand for a spatially
literate workforce. This is made possible through seeds sown by NASA, USDA
and NOAA, and the science and education networks provided by Land
Grant (Cooperative Extension), Space
Grant, Sea Grant and other
local partners.

The GPS system can fix position across the surface of the globe and up to 200Km into space (non-military receivers don't work to this height).
In each participating state, a Geospatial Extension Specialist (GES) acts as a knowledge broker, or the two-way conduit between research, applications development and practice. We build on existing Earth science capabilities, which include Earth observations from space, modeling and systems engineering, geographic information systems (GIS), the global positioning system (GPS) and spatial decision support systems (SDSS).
