The She Maps Geospatial in Schools Awards recognise outstanding achievements of Australian students and teachers in geospatial learning and teaching. We want to shine a light on those individuals that are considered a driving force in the transfer of geospatial knowledge through engaging, creative and innovative contributions, and on those individuals that excel in geospatial learning through passion, curiosity, and leadership. The She Maps Geospatial in Schools Awards cover three categories:
Recognising high achievements of students in geospatial learning in and beyond the classroom.
Recognising the achievement of emerging teachers in geospatial teaching in and beyond the classroom.
Recognising the achievement of innovative teachers in geospatial teaching in and beyond the classroom.
The Geospatial in Schools Awards are endorsed and supported by the two leading geospatial industry bodies, The Surveyors’ Trust and the Geospatial Council of Australia (GCA).
Award recipients win a visit to the annual geospatial conference Locate in 2026, a travel and accommodation subsidy, a day access pass and an invitation to the exclusive Excellence Awards Gala Dinner. The student award recipient will also receive a conference ticket and travel subsidy for an adult chaperone.
GCA will host award recipients for a tour of the exhibition during the day, providing opportunity to make valuable industry connections, see the latest geospatial technologies and learn about advancements and innovations in geospatial sciences. Each Teacher Award recipient also receives a She Maps individual teacher membership for 1 year.
