Summary

Landmap continues to provide high-quality spatial data to the UK academic community through the Kaia Geoportal.

The next year will focus on improving the user experience of Kaia through further client developments

Promote the use of the service through running workshops nationwide at universities & providing webinars.

The Learning Zone will continue to be developed with requests for further courses from the academic community.

Spatial Science for Schools and ELOGeo will be promoted in the UK over the next year to increase usage of these new resources.
