GeoAI Environmental Intelligence Living Labs Green Data
About the laboratory

A research ecosystem connecting geography, data and society.

GeoDataX was created as a space for innovation and training where geographic data converges with the many disciplines that collaborate in analysis, visualization and evidence-based decision making.

The laboratory supports students, researchers and collaborators through interdisciplinary projects, emerging geotechnologies, applied artificial intelligence, environmental sensing and international collaboration networks.

Vision

Become a Latin American reference center for GeoAI, spatial analysis, data science and sustainable innovation.

Mission

Build technical and scientific capacities through training, interdisciplinary research and collaboration networks.

Objective

Design and implement knowledge-transfer strategies for geospatial technologies applied to sustainability, resilience and AI-driven decision making.

Research domains

Six domains, one integrated geospatial intelligence agenda.

The site moves from isolated projects to a coherent international research portfolio.

01

GeoAI & Spatial Computing

Maps, spatial data science, machine learning, digital twins and intelligent territorial analysis.

02

Environmental Intelligence

Air, water, climate and urban environmental monitoring through IoT and open data.

03

Green Data

Sustainable data infrastructures, energy-aware computing and low-impact digital ecosystems.

04

Smart Territories

Urban resilience, mobility, public space, accessibility and evidence-based planning.

05

Citizen Science

Community-driven sensing, participatory data practices and public-facing knowledge transfer.

06

Data Science for Society

Health, infrastructure, public policy and social impact through responsible data methods.
