This resource looks at the application of GIS using social indicators and could be used at any key stage. Students use a combination of different GIS websites to manipulate maps to investigate the socioeconomic characteristics within their local area and elsewhere.

The aims of this resource are to try to identify contrasting areas and look at how their characteristics vary and why this is. They should also consider how using this GIS data can be useful and to who?
