Research Questions

1. How do online maps affect how one would plan for a camping trip?
Now people do not use hard copy maps, they look online and then if they really feel like it they will print something off to look at.

2. Why did people think they needed to make online and interactive maps and directions?
It is easier for scientists to process data in the field, as well as update existing data. There is also the fact that the average person is "too busy" to learn how to actually use a map, so they just look at their computer/phone.

3. How do GPS's work?
How did the scientits come up with the equations and everything to know where you are. Also, where did the money come from to put the satellites up in the sky?
