Domains of research

Our Geographic Information System Laboratory "GIS Lab" works mainly in the following areas:

  • The geogovernance of territories. This approach is based on a precise spatial analysis in order to make relevant territorial information available to all the actors concerned. Our flagship product Dezon'Alp is a geogovernance tool designed to facilitate the process of dezoning plots in municipalities.
  • The study of complex systems in which space plays a major role. We have developed a socio-economic simulation model that makes it possible to simulate the evolution of the different economic sectors in a territory and to evaluate the chain reactions during a change in the system (in terms of population, jobs, GDP, etc.).
