As a lab member of the Center for Geospatial Research (CGR) at UGA, DiGTL, along with its team of faculty and students, develops and integrates a variety of technologies to enhance our understanding of the world. We explore and integrate approaches for data acquisition, employing novel methods to collect, manipulate, visualize, and interact with data. Our tools address critical and contemporary issues in human-environment relationships and have been used to represent natural and built landscapes, including cultural resources.

Implementations and technology integration have a strong teaching/learning component and involve hands-on training of undergraduate and graduate students from multiple departments at the University of Georgia. Results are presented to the UGA/Athens community and beyond during classes, demonstrations, presentations and events.
