What I was told by the program is they want projects where:
A) You can get something significant done within a year
and ideally
B) The project is photogenic.

I didn’t have any luck with my proposal (and they don’t give feedback on why) 
but my student got some funding for his tree drought mortality project where he 
arranged to meet up with a photographer to create an interactive map for public 
outreach - the kind of thing where you start at a large scale, then zoom in to 
drone pictures of dead canopy trees, then zoom in again to show bark beetle 
damage, etc.

Hey Katherine,
I have drafted an application for the same. Wasn't sure whom to actually ask 
for any suggestions or advice. It'd be great to have experienced people helping 
out. Thanks. :)

Subject: familiarity with the National Geographic Grant process?

Hi all

Just wondering if anyone happens to have familiarity with the National 
Geographic grant 
process<https://www.nationalgeographic.org/grants/grant-opportunities/>. I've 
drafted up an application, and could really use some help with edits. Please 
let me know if you have any advice! Thanks a bunch!

Best
Kat
