This award provides funding from the Directorate of Geoscience to develop secondary school instructional materials that teach ocean science using Geographic Information System (GIS) data. The GIS-based instructional materials will be called "Mapping an Ocean Sanctuary" and will consist of five modules that will help the learner master GIS technology; employ GIS to study the surface and underwater geography of (and bathymetric, ecological, and geophysical data from) three national marine sanctuaries; collect geophysical and ecological data during field studies at the sanctuaries and use GIS to map and analyze the data; and share data and analyses with other students and schools via the Internet. The work is a collaborative effort between the Center for Image Processing in Education (CIPE) and the Sustainable Seas Expeditions (SSE). It will use data collected in the Monterey Bay, Channel Islands, and Florida Keys Marine Sanctuaries.

该奖项由地球科学局提供资金，用于编制中学教材，利用地理信息系统数据教授海洋科学。以地理信息系统为基础的教材将称为"绘制海洋保护区地图"，将包括五个单元，帮助学习者掌握地理信息系统技术;利用地理信息系统研究海洋保护区的地表和水下地理;（以及来自）三个国家海洋保护区的测深、生态和地球物理数据;在保护区进行实地研究期间收集地球物理和生态数据，并利用地理信息系统绘制地图和分析数据;并通过互联网与其他学生和学校分享数据和分析。这项工作是教育图像处理中心（CIPE）和可持续海洋探险（SSE）之间的合作努力。它将使用在蒙特雷湾、海峡群岛和佛罗里达礁群海洋保护区收集的数据。
