Using GIS across different disciplines in Danish gymnasiums (High School) Educational framework –Student participation Desktop-based GIS Field-based GIS Web-based GIS

GIS and student participation Good ICT-functionality and knowledge sharing Teaching teams cooperating closely and openly Well-structured teaching models wíth sub- categories

Ortho photo with GIS analysis by students A GIS project can visualize the collected data in a map On top of an Ortho photo the students may draw the outlines of a building and add new information about every location.

Ortho photo with GIS-data The same GIS project again Not the map, but part of the data base made by the students is shown here

Wells and polluted areas – using ”Intersect” The Municipality of Aarhus

Environmental pollution at Mundelstrup The 1980s: 20 sites were depolluted. Toxic soil was removed and new soil put on (20 million DKK)

Map of the fertilizer factory - the source of pollution Fertilizer factory ( ) Map from about 1900

Field-based GIS iPAQ og ArcPad used to collect and store data from the satellites The data were used in the GIS programs.

Web-based GIS with local data Digital Atlas – Local area: Students often quickly realize the possibilities in GIS

GIS query - wind mills Find the best locations for wind mills

Calculate distances from wind mills
