Abstract

Building Relationships, Bridging Resources: Mapping a City's Cultural Assets
Track: Teaching and Research
Authors: Lisa Sjoberg, D. Bryan Bishop

This innovative, integrative learning project fostered partnerships between Concordia College faculty and students with the City of Moorhead, Minnesota’s officials and practitioners to create an interactive and visual representation of the city’s cultural assets using ArcGIS. This presentation will cover the first phase of this community-based research project: building a geodatabase, collecting data, and creating a map. We will also highlight opportunities for future development.
