9452441 Wikle This project targets the implementation of an undergraduate field program in the use of global positioning system (GPS) technology. Instrumentation includes GPS receivers and laptop computers for data logging. The equipment is also being utilized by geography and forestry majors and students from other natural resource programs taking courses in Physical Geography, Computer Cartography, Remote Sensing, Geographic Information Systems, Field Techniques, Forest Mensuration, and Aerial Photogrammetry. Two main objectives are stressed, namely introducing GPS field equipment to students enrolled in a general education geography course and allowing upper division students to integrate state-of-the-art system technologies. The proposed GPS field program is also expected to serve as a prototype to test new curricula and as a model for similar geography programs at other institutions.

9452441 Wikle这个项目的目标是在全球定位系统（GPS）技术的使用本科领域计划的实施。 仪器包括GPS接收器和用于数据记录的笔记本电脑。地理和林业专业的学生以及其他自然资源专业的学生也在使用这些设备，他们正在学习自然地理学、计算机制图学、遥感、地理信息系统、野外技术、森林测定和航空摄影测量学等课程。强调了两个主要目标，即向参加普通教育地理课程的学生介绍全球定位系统实地设备，并使高年级学生能够采用最先进的系统技术。 拟议中的全球定位系统实地方案预计也将作为一个原型，以测试新的课程，并作为一个模型，在其他机构类似的地理方案。
