At the Center for Geospatial Analytics at NC State University, we develo p innovative software, applications, and educational materials for open sou rce geospatial analytics and GIS with a special focus on environmental mode ling, geovisualization, space-time simulations, and multi-temporal LiDAR da ta analysis. With open source geospatial tools, we investigate environmenta l assessment and sustainable land management applications, study the dynami cs and vulnerability of coastal regions to investigate the impact of land u se change on soil erosion and deposition, and identify locations with high solar energy potential. We also explore new techniques for interacting with geospatial data, such as tangible geospatial modeling, which when coupled with GRASS GIS supports collaboration, decision-making, and education. Free and open source software ensures the freedom to use our tools for any purp ose, to review and change the underlying algorithms, and to share the tools with the research community and general public.
Presenter: Dr. Helena Mitasova is a Professor in the Department of Marine, Earth and Atmo spheric Sciences and a faculty fellow with the Center for Geospatial Analyt ics at North Carolina State University in Raleigh NC. She is a charter memb er of the OSGeo foundation and a recipient of the Sol Katz award for except ional Open Source Geospatial community service the Biennial Medal from IEMS S for outstanding contributions to environmental modeling. She has co-autho red more than 100 publications on geospatial modeling, terrain analysis, an d visualization, including the first book on Open Source GRASS GIS. Her cur rent research includes tangible landscapes, simulations of landscape proces ses and analysis of lidar and 3D UAS data time series. She serves on editor ial boards of Computers and Geosciences, Geomorphology, Transactions in GIS . She has developed unique graduate courses based on combined open source a nd proprietary software offered through the Center of Geospatial Analytics.
