>Subject: Two Arizona newspaper articles about mapping
 
 
The Arizona Republic recently carried two articles about mapping activities:
 
11/8/98, p.A26 "New Technology Being Used to Study Island's Mysteries," by
Gary Robbins, (Orange County Register) is about Saddleback College botanist
Tony Huntley's use of GIS and GPS to study Easter Island's stone statues.
 
11/9/98, p.B1,3 "Indians Helping with Census: Will Map the Way to Remote
Houses" reports that the Census Bureau has hired "several hundred Native
Americans ... to locate all habitable structures on Arizona reservations
and mark their locations on maps."  Most, but not all reservations, will be
surveyed this way to prepare for the 2000 Census.
