Abstract: In a research project on the spatial behaviour of young people we implemented the idea of creating temporary artworks and messages using physical space itself as a drawing surface. We conducted GPS drawing actions with secondary school students in the city of Vienna. In small groups, students developed concepts for their pieces of GPS art during the arts class at school and were later asked to draw this idea “into the city” by walking a GPS track. The contents of their work provide a valuable insight into the perception and meaning of space from a different point of view. By using a simple GPS device as a “pen” and a cityscape as the corresponding “paper” the students interacted with space in a new way. They experienced different facets of familiar spatial settings and places and thus also rethought these spaces in a new way.

GIS as a technology has come a long way, from the
early adoption of technical wizardry to the ubiquitous,
if unconscious use by the masses. The creation
of the GISociety is on its way through technological
development, theoretical and empirical scientific
research and inclusion of technology into education
with increasing pedagogical justification.
Defining new dimensions of hard- and software,
brainware and orgware are all needed to further
develop the GISociety.
