This hands-on training is for people who would like to learn about using Google Earth Engine to analyze big geospatial datasets, satellite imagery and/or vector data. Activities focus on accessing imagery, creating composites and running analyses over stacks of images. The training will consist of coding using the Earth Engine Javascript code editor. Previous coding…
The Professional Showcase is an opportunity for our graduating students to present their Capstone projects in front of the geospatial community at NC State. This includes student peers, alumni, faculty and staff from across the university, and our community and industry partners. This is a tremendous professional development and networking opportunity for our students. The…
Coastal systems are subject to water quality degradation through excessive anthropogenic nutrient loading and climate change. Common problems include hypoxia (low dissolved oxygen) and harmful algal blooms that threaten ecosystems, recreation, and fisheries. While multiple organizations are tasked with monitoring such systems, sampling is often sparse and disjointed, limiting our ability to assess water quality…
The Center for Geospatial Analytics will host its first annual Faculty Fellows Symposium on February 7th, 2019! This networking event will feature our Faculty Fellows' latest research and is designed to spark new collaborations among our fellows, current and prospective students and other researchers. All interested faculty, staff and students at NC State are welcome…
In this forum, Camilla Mahon with Mapbox will discuss the evolving landscape of hardware and software tooling in the remote sensing industry with emphasis on common open source software solutions for wrangling pixels, the implications of cloud computing and importance of scale, the variety of satellites, planes, and UAVs being used for data collection, and…
A first important step towards better usability of available disease surveillance databases in developing countries, such as Brazil, is developing easier to interpret risk-based priority indices using small area scale health data. Additionally, there is a need to reclassify and downscale multi-resolution state-level geospatial data to better serve policymakers at the municipality level. This Forum…

Immersive technologies are going mainstream. Improved in quality and affordable, they provide a unique opportunity for spatial sciences, which have, in parallel, witnessed tremendous advancements in 3D sensing and modeling technologies. These synergistic transitions allow spatial disciplines like geosciences, architecture, landscape architecture, or geography, to revisit possibilities for using immersive technologies for communicating and understanding…
