Abstract: EDMAP is the educational component of the NCGMP that is intended to train the next generation of geologic mappers. The NCGMP allocates funds to colleges and universities in the United States and Puerto Rico through an annual competitive cooperative agreement process. Every federal dollar that is awarded is matched with university funds. Geology professors, who are skilled in geologic mapping, request EDMAP funding to support undergraduate and graduate students at PO 00000 Frm 00086 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 11565 their college or university in a one-year mentored geologic mapping project that focuses on a specific geographic area.
