Services
The Geospatial Core Facility is much more than just GIS analysis.
Our equipment and team support the entire workflow of all things geo-spatial from primary data collection using a suite of different sensors and platforms to sophisticated analysis that includes:
- Advanced mapping and geo-spatial analysis that leverage Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) or drone-based sensors that use LiDAR, hyperspectral, thermal, orthoimagery, & Structure from Motion
- High precision mapping and analysis using GPS and GNSS
- Acoustic Doppler Profiles of rivers, reservoirs, and lakes
- Data visualization and cartography
- Remote sensing using active and passive sensors
- Geo-spatial analysis, data development, and management
- High Performance Computing infrastructure that leverages all of the above using open source and proprietary software
