Research Environment

Center for Research in Geomatics (CRG)

CRG is one of the largest geomatics research centres in the world and is recognized for its innovation and leadership in R&D in geospatial sciences and technologies. Based at Université Laval's Department of Geomatics Sciences, CRG brings together world-class researchers in geomatics with researchers in the departments of Computer Sciences, Urban Planning, Geography and Organizational Information Systems. CRG activities are mainly focused on original and innovative fundamental research as well as applied aspects of geomatics sciences (legal surveying, geodesy, geographic information systems, GPS positioning, photogrammetry, etc.), and also in information technologies (big data, artificial intelligence, image processing, computer vision, virtual and augmented reality, etc.) and sciences and engineering (robotics, etc.). CRG's position at the intersection of science and engineering, IT and the human and social sciences fosters innovation and helps make geomatics an especially vital field in the 21st century's knowledge society.
