Virginia Tech Feb. 23rd KTU exhibit- "Our Changing Planet"

The earth changes from natural processes over time. Mostly, these changes take place over hundreds and thousands of years, much longer than humans have existed on earth – for instance, the Colorado River carving out the Grand Canyon. Sometime these changes can take place over the course of hours or even days. In today’s age of geospatial technologies, we can track and document these changes. The tools and data are readily available on-line for students, parents, and teacher’s daily use. We will be using computers to show these on-line tools, how to use them, and information on how to access these from home.
