Pacing

30 minutes of self-paced student learning

Each inquiry fits inside a lesson you already teach. No software to install, no accounts required.

Layers

Real data, real maps

Students turn layers on and off, measure, filter, and compare — the same tools working professionals use.

Standards

Built for your subject

Earth science, human geography, history, and environmental science, each mapped to the topics you cover.
