Geographic Information Systems Laboratory, GIS
The Geographic Information Systems Laboratory represents a recently established facility that utilizes computing technology and digital information for the visualization and study of a wide range of phenomena occurring on Earth.
This scientific and pedagogical laboratory addresses the following research questions:
- This scientific and pedagogical laboratoryDevelopment of geoinformation systems (GIS) applications to solve problems, particularly in the characterization of contaminated environments.
- Exploration of the potential use of pollen grain distribution from specific plant species in spatial analysis to address various issues, such as criminal investigations.
The laboratory is equipped with high-performance workstations running software for processing satellite and ground-based records.
Laboratory Equipment:
- ArcGIS Software Version 10.5.1: A modern GIS system applied in academic settings and practical applications.
- ERDAS IMAGINE Software Version 16.1: Used for analyzing satellite and aerial images, as well as laser and radar data.
- Large-Format Printer: Allows for the printing of coordinate-displayed data.
This advanced setup enables comprehensive analysis and visualization, fostering the development of innovative solutions in environmental science, forensic investigations, and other fields reliant on geospatial data.
