Overview
![Page 4: By Martha Mosqueda The University of Arizona Department of Nutritional Sciences April 18 th , 2009](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052701/56813136550346895d97a868/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Objective
Encourage regular stealth PA with the integration of geospatial technology in three vulnerable populations.
Are GPS and collaborative mapping a motivation to have fun and move?
*PA = Physical Activity

A vulnerable populations = Anyone with compromised levels of PA

El Rio Weight Loss Fitness Program
• 9 low income women ages
19-67 from South Tucson
• Walked an average of 1,164 steps
• Google MyMaps
• Results: 100% positive

Mid-Term Questionnaire Results

1. These three different populations like using GPS.
2. This research suggests that geospatial technology has the potential to encourage PA in vulnerable populations.
3. We are now integrating our GPS results into collaborative maps (via Google MyMaps) with NASA imagery providing the context for analysis and visualization.
Interpretation

Future
These findings are being incorporated into a new federal study (“Stealth Health”) involving GPS in mobile phones and collaborative maps in social networks.

• Global Positioning System is a navigation tool.• Give your position on earth with the information
satellites send to the GPS receiver. • We use it scientifically to encourage and
measure PA and map.• http://scign.jpl.nasa.gov/learn/gps1.htm
