May 13, 2010 -- ESRI Australia is proud to once again support the annual Spatial Technology in Schools competition. The competition sees students from across Australia use GIS technology in challenging, informative and fun ways to assist in solving a problem from any area of the curriculum.
The competition is conducted in each State and Territory of Australia, and New Zealand, with a prize awarded for the best project in each region. The winners of each region are then judged to determine the Regional Winner.
ESRI Australia is providing free ArcGIS software licences for schools entering in the competition. By using the same software that is used by millions of GIS professionals around the world every day, students will gain real insights into how GIS is used to solve real-world issues.
