The Geographical Information Science Research Group (GIScRG)encourages collaborative, cross-disciplinary discussion between the researchers, users and providers of digital geographical information. Objective is to promote the development and application of theory and knowledge in GI Science to the collection, processing, analysis and modelling of geographical information within digital environments such as GIS, cartography, environmental modeling, image processing and remote sensing.
Research interests include:
digital visualization of geographical information, spatial patterns and processes
methods and applications of geocomputation
data dissemination and exchange standards in digital media, including the internet
measuring uncertainty in geoinformation
modelling geographical processes
integrating geographical and temporal data
multidimensional representation and analysis
geographical applications of E-Science and Grid Computing.
Members of the natural, social, environmental, computer and applied science communities are invited to join the group.
Chair: Dr Robert Abrahart
Joint Secretaries: Dr Alison Heppenstall & Dr Linda See
