• Instrumentation for Enhancing Instructional and Research Programs in Geographic Information Science at a Post-secondary minority and Hispanic Serving Institution. Funded by the U. S. Army Research Office, Zong-Guo Xia as Principal Investigator
• Integration of Remote Sensing and GIS with Land Use and Transportation Planning Tools for Operational Applications in Urbanized Area. Funded by the U. S. Department of Transportation, Zong-Guo Xia as Principal Investigator
• Cooperative Center for REmote Sensing Science and Technology (CREST). Funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Juliana Maantay as Principal Investigator
• Hispanic Serving Institution Assisting Communities. Funded by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Eleanor Lundeen and Keville Frederickson as Co-Project Directors
• Teacher Renewal for Urban Science Teaching (TRUST). Funded by the National Science Foundation, Maritza Macdonald as Principal Investigator
  
  

• In the research area, the waste-to-energy (WTE) project funded by EPA has been tested with GeoBrain data products. The project identifies good locations for WTE projects based on the locations of sources of waste and the infrastructure needed to exploit those resources. The goal for the project is to promote energy recovery activities that will improve public health and the environment and help to increase our country's energy security. The customized Landsat and MODIS products obtained from GeoBrain were tested in the project
  
  

• With the funding from the GeoBrain project in combination with OSCI funding, one graduate student has been hired to conduct a comparison study of at-sensor brightness temperatures measured by Terra ASTER and Landsat ETM+. The study area is along the east coast of the USA, from northern North Carolina to southern Virginia,. The GeoBrain system, which provides data customization capabilities for facilitating comparison, is used to download experimental data. Two papers describing the research results from this study have been submitted for peer-review, one to Remote Sensing of Environment and the other to the International Journal of Remote Sensing
  
  

• Using GeoBrain to support his "Problem-based Learning" teaching and research activities (http://resweb.llu.edu/rford/)
• Developing remote sensing and Earth system science (ESS) modules with the online global data sources and Web services provided by GeoBrain (http://resweb.llu.edu/rford/ESSE21/LUCCModule/)
  
  

• During the past year, Prof. Prakash also conducted many research activities with the help of GeoBrain and published her results. For examples, she did "Remote Sensing and GIS based Alaska mapping and monitoring studies" and "Promoting Use of Remote Sensing Data and Technology through Polar Case Studies for Post-Secondary Education and Research"
