This year Smaa has collaborated her GIS expertise with that of fellow seniors Nich Tremper, Joe DeStefano, and alumna Sam Bulkilvish ’09 on the Maryland Conservation Training website. This website is a group effort between the Maryland Department of Agriculture, Upper Shore Regional Council, Green Earth Connection, WC Center for Environment & Society, and WC GIS lab. Through these websites, individuals have access to information as a resource for learning Best Management Practices on Maryland Farms, an effective and significant resource on Maryland’s eastern shore.
