MAGIP is a non-profit professional association dedicated to advancing an interdisciplinary approach to geographic information. It aims to support the strengths of its members, find solutions to collective problems, and meet the needs of the Montana GIS community. Through educational workshops, conferences, forums, and grants, MAGIP fosters technical cooperation and promotes the development of policies and practices for the effective use of geographic information systems.
The K-12 Education Grants sponsored by the Montana Association of Geographic Information Professionals (MAGIP) aim to support the development and use of geographic location-based technologies in K-12 classrooms. This encompasses Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), or Remote Sensing. Projects that are eligible for funding include curriculum development, teacher training, and the purchase of equipment or software to enhance geographic instruction. A key aspect of these grants is the potential integration of ESRI software, which is provided to schools and homeschoolers in Montana for free. MAGIP awards up to two competitive grants annually, emphasizing the association's commitment to geospatial education. Grant recipients are encouraged to share their projects at the annual Big Sky GeoCon, with provisions made for complimentary conference registration and a travel stipend for those traveling over 100 miles.
