for viewing on Monday, January 28, 2013 from 11:00am to 1:30pm in the Utah
State Capitol Building Rotunda.
Maps on the Hill
is a great way to learn how current mapping technology is being applied to
important issues across a wide range of disciplines including land ownership,
health, addressing, emergency preparedness, history and utilities. Maps on
the Hill is expected to draw over 50 map exhibits from all levels of
government, private sector firms, and higher education. Utah’s elected
officials and the public are invited to come learn about the various mapping
projects from professionals and students.
