Welcome to our Geographic Resource Area
PCEI is proud to announce our Geographic Resource Area - the place where you can go to find all kinds of existing mapping resources! Feel free to browse around through the links below and play around with some of the maps. Please send us feedback (press the 'Feedback' button above) if you have any comments or suggestions.


We have been working for the past several years to help Idaho K-12 teachers implement GIS technologies in their classrooms. As part of that work, we have put together a collaborative online spreadsheet for sharing resources and contact information. The spreadsheet features links to online data sources and contact information for Idaho GIS professionals who may be able to assist K-12 educators with technical aspects of GIS implementation. Please click here to visit the spreadsheet. If you would like to help add resources to the spreadsheet, please contact Jake Smulkowski at jake@pcei.org.


We are in the process of conducting a needs assessment to determine what Idaho K-12 educators need to more effectively teach GIS in their classrooms. If you are a teacher or GIS professional, or just interested in participating in the survey, please click here to take survey.
