This award to Lehigh University's Department of Geological Sciences is made in response to a proposal submitted to the National Science Foundation's Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement Program. The award will provide one-half of the funds needed to acquire computer software for a geographic information system and a plotter for hardcopy. The University is committed to matching the NSF contribution for this equipment. The acquisition of the geographic information system will improve undergraduate instruction in Lehigh's groundwater studies program by providing for (1) interrogation of a data base in which attribute data are linked with cartographic data, (2) derivation of relationships among environmental features by arithmetic or logical operations on the database, and (3) graphic displays of retrieved or derived model information.

这个奖项授予利哈伊大学地质系 科学是为了回应提交给 国家科学基金会仪器和实验室 改进方案。该奖项将提供一半的资金， 需要获取地理信息的计算机软件 系统和硬拷贝的打印机。该大学致力于 与国家科学基金会对这台设备的资助相匹配。 收购地理信息系统将 改进里海地下水研究本科教学 通过提供（1）询问数据库， 其中属性数据与制图数据相关联，（2） 环境特征之间关系的推导， 对数据库进行算术或逻辑运算，以及（3）图形 显示检索或导出的模型信息。
