The endpoint is scientific output: publication figures, interactive viewers, immersive site walks, and open data that collaborators and audiences can actually use.

Visualization

Outputs packaged so collaborators, students, and audiences can see and use them: publication figures, interactive 3D viewers, and immersive site walks.

Maps and figures

Publication-ready static maps and figures with Matplotlib, ggplot, and ArcGIS layouts. Color-blind-safe palettes, units, and scale by default; cartographic conventions throughout.

Orthomosaics and DEM hillshades

High-resolution print outputs and web-tiled deliverables (COG, MBTiles) for inclusion in reports, dashboards, and field maps.

3D point cloud and mesh viewers

Browser-based interactive viewers for sharing point clouds and meshes with collaborators who don't run desktop GIS.

Gaussian splats

High-fidelity 3D scene captures from photo or video sets, viewable directly in the browser. Common uses: outreach, teaching, quick site documentation.

XR (VR / AR)

Meta Quest 3 and HoloLens 2 builds for immersive site walks, training, and outreach. Past projects include archaeological reconstructions, geology field-trip simulations, and remote site briefings.

Interactive web maps

Leaflet, Mapbox GL, and deck.gl maps for public-facing dashboards. Our own data catalog is one example: every published lab dataset, browsable on a map.

XR hardware on hand

Headsets maintained by the lab for immersive site walks, training, and outreach.

Open data catalog & STAC API

Sharing doesn't stop at figures. Published datasets land in the lab's public data catalog — drone orthomosaics, lidar point clouds, SAR scenes, and 3D scene captures, organized by field site and browsable on a map.

Everything in the catalog is also available programmatically through a STAC API, with Python and R quickstarts on the Data page. The default license is CC BY 4.0; some items carry restricted-access flags — contact the lab before redistributing.

Working with lab deliverables

Formats, viewers, and access instructions for lab deliverables are covered in the lab documentation.
