IGIS has PhD Lab facility for 10 students. The lab is equipped with dedicated core i7 computers each housing 16 GB of RAM and research software such as
RAMMS (Rapid Mass Movement Simulation)
HEC RAS
HEC HMS
AVA FLOW
PARAVIEW
POVRAY
to name a few. In this lab student also have access to high end computers, processing clusters with remote access in case they have high end computational requirements.
Available resources
High end pentium core i5 and i7 computers
Software as pe need basis for research
ASD field spectroradiometer
Multispectral camera
Quad-copter drones
Quad-copter Drones
Of the drones the lab houses a DJI Phantom 4 drones, which is used for survey and mapping needs of students, arising out of their projects.
ASD Spectroradiometer
The department has an ASD FieldSpec spectroradiometer which delivers the fastest and most accurate spectral field measurements available from any commercial field-portable spectroradiometer. Continued enhancements to core instrument spectrometers and other critical components have dramatically improved overall performance, signal, and integration speeds compared to earlier models.
Mica Sense Multispectral camera
The department also has a MicaSense Red Edge camera designated for high end student projects for vegetation mapping and monitoring. This can range from crops to urban green areas.
