University Park, MD
       

About Us

 
 

YC Mapping is an energetic group of adults who support and showcase Youth Community Mapping projects in the United States. Our team includes 4-H volunteers, retired technology workers, schoolteachers, and youth leaders.

We invite you to click through the pages to see what talented youth have created.  Mentored by caring adults, these youth have used GPS locaters, GIS software, and data collection techniques, to help their communities through a variety of projects.
