Geospatial and 3D urban modelling research group at the National University of Singapore
We are an interdepartmental multidisciplinary research group established in 2019 focusing on urban analytics, geographic data science, and 3D city modelling at the School of Design and Environment, National University of Singapore (NUS), the #1 ranked university in Asia and world’s #11 (QS).
Our mission is to leverage on spatially enabled data for urban applications, making sense of big geospatial data in the built environment, and catering to disciplines such as architecture, urban planning, and real estate. We put a particular focus on the infrastructure and geospatial technology powering urban analytics and urban informatics (Geomatics, data standardisation, quality of data, and GIScience).
The lab is led by Dr Filip Biljecki, asst prof at NUS Architecture and Real Estate.
We are involved in several international collaborations such as the World Economic Forum (WEF), the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS), and the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC).
