GIScience Lab

Welcome to the GIScience Lab. The GIScience Lab provides specialized computing facilities to support teaching and learning within the Faculty of Environment. During each academic semester, the lab facilities are accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to authorized users.

Access to GIScience Lab computers is restricted to students enrolled in designated courses that utilize the lab facilities. This ensures that computing resources remain available to support course-related activities and academic work.

Please note that staff do not provide assistance with course assignments, lab exercises, or academic coursework. Students requiring course-related support should consult their instructor or Teaching Assistant.
