September 2022 Newsletter - Mapping Unmarked Graves at Indigenous Residential Schools with High Accuracy GNSS

September 2022 Newsletter: Mapping historic gravesites with GPR, GPS and GIS

Feature Story

/// Mapping Unmarked Graves at Indigenous Residential Schools

In the 1890s, Canada’s Indian Act mandated Indigenous children attend specific government-sponsored schools, which promoted assimilation. Oral history had recorded terrible conditions. Today, Dr. Sarah Beaulieu is spear-heading an effort to map previously unmarked gravesites of these children. Locating and documenting the sacred sites requires extreme accuracy, precision, and noninvasiveness. Read how Dr. Beaulieu uses Radiodetection GPR, Arrow GNSS, and ArcGIS to confirm a long-suspected tragedy.
