The US GeoGen Project ® is a national project designed to combine
the hobbies of genealogy and electronic orienteering. Most everyone
who has performed genealogical research has spent time driving around
looking for cemeteries and other historical sites and monuments.
Electronic orienteering is the use of global positioning devices (GPS)
and maps to find out of the way trails, engage in
Geocaching, or compete in
orienteering contests.
The goal of the project is to create a national network of county
oriented pages listing locations of interest to the genealogist along
with their geographical coordinates, so those researchers that follow
can easily find the locations.
