The geospatial services team operates out of the GIS Lab, located on the 9th floor of the Library / Tech building in rooms 951 & 952. Baruch students, faculty, and staff can meet with the Geospatial Data Librarian to discuss projects and get assistance, and can work independently on GIS or data-related projects in the lab with help nearby. CUNY affiliates are also welcome to inquire. Appointments are required (sorry, no drop-ins).
We specialize in: Census and demographic data, geographic and place-based datasets, GIS and mapping (see our goals and services)
Temporary Location while Lab is Closed
Due to maintenance on the 9th floor the GIS Lab will be closed and we will be working from temporary office space from 10/4 through 10/21. We will be located in CIDR's offices on the 6th floor of the Admin building on 22nd and Lexington. Email Frank for consultations and appointments.
