The Geospatial Science Center (GSSC) is an embedded center within Earth Systems Research Center (ESRC) at the UNH Institute for the Study of Earth, Oceans, and Space (EOS). It's staff specializations in GIS, web mapping, remote sensing, spatial analysis, environmental sensor development, data visualization, and data sonification for the natural and social sciences.
Our collective mission is to study, use, and promote geospatial science applications, methods, and data to help promote the advancement of science, research, and education.
To learn more about the Geospatial Science Center (GSSC) or to find out more about how we can help you with your upcoming projects please contact us here.
The GSSC is always seeking highly motivated, bright, and creative staff and students to work with us. We currently employ over a dozen geospatial science computer programmers, GIS and remote sensing specialists, and geospatial technicians. Many students who have worked with us have gone on after graduation to work for nationally known organizations including ESRI, Rand McNally, HERE, CDM, EMC, and UNH.
If you are interested in working with a highly innovative and dynamic group using geospatial programming, web mapping, data archiving, GIS, remote sensing, crowdsource mapping, data capture, and digital cartography technologies, please contact us here.

The GSSC, having its roots dating back to 1986, has a long and established record of working on high impact projects. Originally founded to help support the geospatial analysis needs of the UNH Institute for the Study of Earth Oceans and Space (EOS) and the NH GRANIT State GIS data clearinghouse, the GSSC quickly grew to work on many projects of local, regional, national, and international scope.
To date, the GSSC has supported multiple multi-million dollar grants and hundreds of projects with study areas on six of the seven world continents including Antarctica.
