Specialized Laboratory Unit ‐ Laboratory for Geographic Information Systems and Decision Support Modeling


DESCRIPTION

The research of the laboratory is based on the coupling of GIS with control, optimization and semantic models in a unified system for decision support (DSS). Methods include creating concepts and testing DSS prototypes that include geospatial database and analysis (GIS - SPO), experimenting with the application of GIS - SPO in new areas, adapting existing and creating new software applications for storage, processing, analysis and dissemination of geospatial data.

The laboratory participates in solving social challenges through European, national and local projects. The acquisition of modern GIS - DSS equipment opened the possibility of cooperation in scientific research and with the economy at the local level and solving problems at the European/global level. Collaboration is foreseen in the development of new applications and prototypes, for example, the improvement of decision support systems and decision-making control systems in the areas of water resources management, disasters, urban infrastructure, projects, creation of e-services, geoportals, etc.
