Social Studies Teachers Rejoice! Digital Maps for Sale

The Exploration Company is proud to help Social Studies teachers in the transition from wall maps to digital maps with the launch of its online store where instructors may now purchase digital maps on their own.  The first map provider to supply this exciting service, The Exploration Company is the country's leader in innovation of modern digital maps with new content and has just launched its fourth generation of interactive maps under a collection titled EarthPoint.  Now, their digital maps are being sold as singles at the same price as a wall map.  Without the cost of shipping or the need to buy a whole new map at full price 3-6 years afterward, schools are saving thousands when purchasing digital.

This post aims to be a quick guide in helping you purchase your first digital map through our store.  The store helps a school that is looking to equip only one or two teachers with an EarthPoint Module.  If you have an interest in equipping more than one or two classrooms with EarthPoint, I'll encourage you to contact us directly for more information so that we can serve you best.

In order to proceed, you will need to have a Paypal account and a Facebook account.  To begin, login to your Facebook account and head your way over to our new 'TheEarthPoint' Fan Page.  This can be found by typing in 'TheEarthPoint' and clicking on the sub-category: "Pages."  Be sure to take a moment to become a fan of our page, as you will have the opportunity to take advantage of special discounts and promotions that may be ongoing.

From here, you may click at the 'Shop Now' tab toward the top of the page.  Here you will see up to 8 featured items.  With the initial launch of this store we have released 12 maps and modules available for single purchase, including the top-selling political, elevation, and landcover maps of both the US and the World.

Let's click on the World Elevation map here.  In order to view it, you will need to "Allow" the Payvment Facebook Application.

After we add it to the cart, a notification will pop up towards the top of your screen showing you your cart.

From here I can shop more, but let's checkout for now.  From this form I will be directed to Paypal to complete my payment.  After your order is processed, your receipt of payment will be from Paypal, and your email notification from The Exploration Company will be processed within the next few days to include your unique serial ID to the maps that you have purchased.
