Supergeo Holds SuperGIS Cup 2017 to Promote Geographic Thinking
The annual event- SuperGIS Cup 2017, held together by Supergeo and Lunghwa University of Science and Technology, is now open for registration until June 30. This competition aims to provide students the opportunity to share their innovative ideas about GIS applications. All participants are encouraged to make good use of GIS and draft a project for addressing various problems in our real life.
This competition welcomes students from different disciplines in Taiwan to participate in, and it involves two stages. In the first stage, participants have to submit an original project about GIS application. In the next stage, the GIS skills of participants will be tested, which means students will have to manipulate GIS software to perform certain functions. High prize and the certificate of merit will be awarded to the outstanding teams which get the highest total scores.
The last SuperGIS Cup, held in 2015, had attracted students with different majors to register. The champion was the team from Chien Hsin University. Their proficient skills in operating GIS software and the well-organized project had greatly impressed the jury.
Because similar events held by Supergeo always attract many students and receive positive feedback, Supergeo will continue to hold contests in the future to promote the importance of geospatial technology and the value of geographic thinking. Also, Supergeo looks forward to co-organizing similar competitions with institutes abroad, hoping to students from all over the world can share this vision.
