The Arctic Research Mapping Application (ARMAP), a suite of online,
interactive maps and services that support arctic science, is now
available for use with Google Earth.

Users can navigate to areas of interest and explore or query information
about field-based scientific research in the Arctic. Research sites are
shown as points with links to details about project investigator,
discipline, funding program, year, related websites, and other elements.
ARMAP includes satellite imagery, other base maps, and map layers for
places, roads, and natural features. Users can print or export maps for
presentations, export selected data, select from a "map gallery" of
predefined images, or link directly to a variety of database web
services. With special emphasis on the International Polar Year (IPY),
ARMAP strives to benefit scientists, science logistics experts,
educators, and the general public.

ARMAP is funded by the National Science Foundation's Office of Polar
Programs, and is a collaborative development effort among the Systems
Ecology Laboratory at the University of Texas at El Paso, Nuna
Technologies, the INSTAAR QGIS Laboratory, and VECO Polar Resources.
