Respecting the genuine function of a University we attempt not to focus on recurring applications and methods but to advance basic research, combinational research, solutions and proof of concepts in present and future challenges including:

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for mapping/ swarm/ communication/ collision avoidance,
GIS tangible systems/ 3D Visualization,
Smart Cities, crowdsourcing, e-democracy, location-based services,
Graphical user interfaces in spatial databases/ queries by sketch/ gestural user interfaces,
Spatiotemporal data modeling/ topology/ scene similarity/ trajectory behavioral analysis,
Multi-temporal satellite image processing/ novel algorithms,
Neuro-morphing and cognitive processes in image processing,
Neural networks/ Self-organizing map generalization,
Neuroscience, psychology in map and spatial perception.

Under the application perspective we conduct research studies in areas including geotechnology, mineral resources, environmental monitoring, agriculture, archaeology, construction, cultural heritage, civil protection, health, natural hazards, sensors, commerce, transport, etc.

Earth Observation, Environmental monitoring, mining, agriculture, global change,
Optimization of belt conveyor location in mines/ Image processing in mineral liberation,
