Training
& Support
The GIP Lab was established to both facilitate primary research and
training in a laboratory environment, and to support spatial analyses and
data management needs of coastal research and management organizations.
The GIP Lab is an integral part of USC's participation in the University
Consortium for Geographic Information Science (UCGIS), a group of
distinguished universities and organizations that specialize in research
and education involving spatial data handling.
Staffed by professionals, graduate, and undergraduate students in GIS,
remote sensing, environmental health, marine science, and database
management, the GIP Lab is available to assist in the training, the
database development and management, and the use of GIS and remote sensing
as research and management tools. The GIP Lab experiments with the
latest technologies, while bridging the gap between environmental research
and learning, and environmental/resource management (at the university,
local, state, and national levels).
