The Laboratory of Computer Science Applications in Spatial Planning apart from supporting teaching, training and research activities of the Department, it forms the link of targeted IT applications in spatial planning and management. Several research projects both in small and large scales have been elaborated with the use Remote Sensing, Geographic Information Systems and Spatial Data Analysis, from its foundation till today. The laboratory consists of professional and well-trained staff. It also uses modern technology hardware and software, with access to the use of special equipment of the Department, such as plotters and audiovisual facilities. The aim of the laboratory of Computer Science Applications in Spatial Planning is through the applied research and the practical problems of the modern society on the natural and anthropogenic space, to highlight and promote the importance of the applications of Information Technology in Spatial Planning.
