About Us
Mission
The mission of Geospatial Minds Foundation, Inc. is to educate, train, explore and prepare students using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) computer skills, mapping techniques, geospatial analysis and location intelligence. Most students cannot afford or do not have access to computers and appropriate software in low income areas and school districts. We seek to improve student’s computer literacy, critical thinking, reading, writing, science, mathematics and analytical skills that can transition to Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) career paths.
