Mapping the University of Botswana - Improving ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World
The University of Botswana’s sprawling campus has always been a challenge to navigate. Buildings are not arranged according to any order, therefore students, guests and even faculty members of the university often struggle to find the locations of lecture halls and classrooms, labs, and essential services. The struggle to navigate the campus would have continued if it were not for Dr. Pelane-Modutlwe Lillian and a small group of students who decided to build a useful campus basemap that would serve everyone.
Dr. Pelane-Modutlwe Lillian recruited a group of third-year students from the Department of Environmental Science in the Faculty of Science. This project was completed through the Living and Learning Communities Academic Mentorship Program.
Learn how this community used the Community Maps Editor to help improve the Esri Basemap collection by improving their own campus basemap. Read the blog or the full story.
