Mr. Andrew Swanson is a graduating senior at the University of Colorado in Boulder, Colorado. He is currently researching an alternate method for the Navajo Nation to provide clean drinking water to the rural chapters of the Navajo Reservation. This is an incredibly detailed thesis utilizing a public policy approach to an indigenous sovereignty issue, that he plans on illustrating through ArcGIS, using data he acquired from the USGS Earth Explorer webapp, all while acknowledging and discussing the engineering challenges posed by routing water through the American Southwest.
