Technology

The Institute for Spatial Analysis, Modeling and Monitoring (ISAMM) will bring Humboldt State University to the cutting-edge of geospatial technology. The Institute is an outgrowth of the University's geospatial program, and will serve to provide geospatial services to HSU's graduate students and faculty on a variety of research endeavors.

Humboldt State University is among the first of the California State Universities to explore the use of UAS in natural resource applications. The University is defining the legal structure and safety protocols required to incorporate this cutting-edge technology into its research endeavors. Over the coming months, HSU will be building out its UAS capabilities, developing a training program, and generating appropriate documentation to ensure that the University's UAS program complies with all rules and regulations defined by the Federal Aviation Administration.
