Geospatial Science and Technology: Focus Areas
International Development
Our geospatial research staff design, develop, and manage GIS resources for use in international health, governance, and education projects. We work with a variety of existing GIS databases, supplanted with data collected in local field operations, to support international monitoring and evaluation projects, educational development, and local government.
We also assist with geospatial capacity building by
- Planning and budgeting for GIS activities and programs for both routine operations and proposal development
- Identifying, developing and implementing GIS-related training and professional development programs
- Managing and administering GIS operations
- Developing, planning, and implementing stand-alone and network-based GIS installations
- Optimizing spatial data management practices
