The GIS Center

at

Radford University

The GIS Center at Radford University, established in July 2001, provides training in GIS software and techniques to both the university community and others. Staffed by faculty in the Geography Department, the Center serves as a training facility, a place for faculty to learn about GIS and how to use it in the classroom, and a resource for the community. 

Classes are taught each year by Center staff in the use of ESRI's ArcGIS 9.2 GIS software. The Center is also an ESRI-certified classroom, meaning that classes are also taught by ESRI instructors in advanced topics like ArcIMS, Python programming, and Visual Basic programming. Please visit this site often to see updated class schedules.

The Center also supplies contract services to the community, including user needs analysis, custom GIS programming, custom mapping, as well as use of the Center's large format HP DesignJet plotter for making large presentation graphics.

For more information about the Center, please call Dr. Bernd Kuennecke at (540) 831-5558 or e-mail us.
