Get Kids Into Survey (GKiS), founded in 2017 by Elaine and Elly Ball, is a project aimed at inspiring young people to consider careers in the geospatial and surveying industries. It addresses the dwindling numbers of people choosing surveying as a profession by creating engaging educational resources like posters and comics to make the industry appealing to children. Topcon Positioning Systems sponsors GKiS's Global Brand Ambassador Hub, which supports volunteers who visit schools to advocate for surveying and introduce students to the geospatial industry. GKiS's mission is to have every child understand surveying and geospatial terminology to address the industry's recruitment crisis and ensure a future generation is ready for urban planning, environmental impact, and land development using geospatial techniques.
