The Digital Scholarship Commons in Hillman Library has a lab area with 12 workstations, each with a widescreen monitor and several GIS applications (ArcGIS, QGIS, Google Earth Pro) installed.
There is also a separate workstation in the Digital Scholarship Commons dedicated to provide access to certain Pitt-only licensed spatial data resources, such as the Geolytics database.
