Center for Earth and Environmental Science

The Center for Earth and Environmental Science is a research center that works to make dramatic contributions to environmental science within the State of Indiana, the Midwest, and beyond. In 1996 IUPUI began a collaboration with the Center for Earth and Environmental Science (CEES) and the IUPUI Department of Geology to produce and convert spatially-referenced data sets and maintain an archive of GIS data. This cooperative agreement between CEES and the IUPUI University Library increases the availability of a wide variety of spatial information and provides exciting opportunities in the use of GIS for students and the local community. A grant from the Library Fund of the Indianapolis Foundation provided the ability to create the Electronic Atlas of Central Indiana.
