Spatial Intelligence and Learning Center Link

The Spatial Intelligence and Learning Center (SILC) brings together scientists and educators from Temple University, Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) to pursue the overarching goals of

  • Understanding spatial learning
  • Using this knowledge to develop programs and technologies that will transform educational practice, helping learners to develop the skills required to compete in a global economy.

SILC participants include researchers from cognitive science, psychology, computer science, education, and neuroscience, as well as practicing geoscientists and engineers who are particularly interested in spatial thinking in their fields, and teachers in the CPS.
CrimeSTAT Link

CrimeSTAT is a spatial statistics program for the analysis of crime incident locations and other data represented as points. Runs in Microsoft Windows and should be used with a desktop GIS.
Philadelphia Neighborhood Information System Link

Access to city planning data at the neighborhood level
DLESE – Digital Library for Earth System Education Link

DLESE is the Digital Library for Earth System Education, a geoscience community resource that supports teaching and learning about the Earth system. It is funded by the National Science Foundation and is being built by a community of educators, students, and scientists to support Earth system education at all levels and in both formal and informal settings. DLESE provides:

  • Easy access to quality teaching and learning resources about the Earth as a system for a wide range of learners.
  • Services to help users effectively create, use and evaluate digital learning resources.
  • Interfaces and tools to allow student exploration of Earth data.
  • A community center that fosters interaction, collaboration and sharing.
Cognitive Systems Research Group at Universität Bremen Link

The Cognitive Systems Research Group at Universität Bremen investigates issues of knowledge representation, reasoning, and communication from an interdisciplinary cognitive science research perspective. The focus of the research is in the area of spatial cognition. The scope of the research spans theoretical work in knowledge representation and formal reasoning, the development and implementation of spatio-temporal cognitive models in virtual and real environments, and empirical studies in the interaction of human and artificial cognitive agents.
BioMedware Spatial Analysis Software Link

BioMedware provides a suite of software packages, for analyzing spatial clusters (ClusterSeer), bounary effects (BoundarySeer), and space-time patterns (SpaceStat).
