Welcome to The University of Mississippi Geoinformatics Center (UMGC).

This Center was created in May 2000 and is funded by the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

The UMGC is dedicate to improving the understanding, usage and access to geo-spatial information. This geo-spatial information is any data about the earth or earth processes that can be obtained directly or using a form of remote sensing. The data is then analyzed and/or enhanced using computer programs and results are displayed in a meaningful manner.
