MIT's Spatial Information Design Lab

MIT's Spatial Information Design Lab is a research group focused on developing innovative ways to visualize and analyze geographic data. They create interactive maps, data tools, and visual representations to help understand complex spatial information—such as urban planning, climate change, or infrastructure. Their work combines design, technology, and data science to improve decision-making and communicate insights effectively for policymakers, communities, and researchers. The lab aims to make spatial data more accessible and meaningful, fostering better understanding of the physical world and supporting sustainable, informed development.
