UC Berkeley's Spatial Data Science Lab

UC Berkeley’s Spatial Data Science Lab is a research group focused on analyzing and understanding geographic information using advanced data techniques. They combine fields like geography, computer science, and statistics to study how spatial data—information tied to specific locations—can reveal patterns and insights about urban planning, environmental changes, transportation, and social issues. By developing new tools and methods, the lab helps decision-makers solve real-world problems related to space and place, making complex location-based data more accessible and useful for understanding our world better.
