Symons Campus
The Data Visualization (DV) Lab, part of the Moore Innovation Hub, is a facility for registered students, staff, and faculty to use advanced computing power and specialized software for spatial, quantitative, and qualitative data analysis and visualization.
The DV lab offers access to upgraded computers and a range of open-source and proprietary software programs for working with complex data sets, including technologies to support 3D and virtual reality (VR) work. Click here for more details about the software available for use in the DV Lab.
Additional details about this space, including lab use guidelines and layout, are available in the DV Lab Guide.
