Measutronics Introduces GPS and SONAR to Elementary Students

Measutronics visited Purcell Elementary School in Mulberry, Florida as part of the annual Great American Teach-In. The Great American Teach-In is an annual event coordinated by the Polk County Public Schools’ to celebrate American Education Week. During this event, members of the community are invited to speak to students about their careers, travel and hobbies, and how their early educational experiences relate to their current lives.

Measutronics brought a TV to give the students an overview of how GPS works and how they use it in their projects. They also brought their survey vessel “A Nickel More” for the students to board and see first-hand cutting edge hydrographic equipment. This is the 3rd year Measutronics has participated in this event.
