Teaching and Research

The map viewer map.geo.admin.ch is ideal for use in teaching and research. The tool teaches students how to use Swiss maps and the related geospatial information. This type of location-based and spatial data is highly relevant in many areas of life. In this context, the sCHoolmaps.ch platform was created, which is supported by the federal government and the cantons in collaboration with various partners to promote the use of digital maps and geodata in the classroom.
