Geo-caching
Maps have been expressed by human beings for the recognition of particular places and locations, and Philip Muehrcke defines it as any geographical image of the environment. They are more than just diagrams since they displayed important features such as scale, area, and shape. Nowadays, GPS (global positioning system) has been much more convenient to make measurements of latitude and longitude at any time and most locations on the planet. One of the class activities we did outside the classroom is geo-caching, where we try to find the “hidden treasure” through the utilization of GPS on our smartphones. We spent about an hour to walk around (and outside) the campus to find and signed them. Pretty fun (and time consuming) activity when you are bored in the summer!
