REU Site: Research Experience for Undergraduates in Spatio-Temporal Database Systems

机构：新奥尔良大学建议编号：0353959PI：Mahdi Abdelguerf标题：REU站点：REU时空数据库系统这个项目在新奥尔良大学(UNO)建立了一个REU站点，专注于时空数据库系统(STD)本科生的研究经验。这个REU网站将为一些STDS应用的本科生提供研究实习机会，所有这些都涉及空间和时间的动态信息建模。具体项目包括新奥尔良大学(UNO)的3D时空地理信息系统；海军研究实验室数字测绘、制图和大地测量分析计划(DMAP)的数字地理空间测绘和分析系统；以及为新奥尔良地区陆军工程兵团的不同现成地理信息系统套件开发管理工具。该网站将支持10名学生参加为期10周的全日制研究暑期项目，学生们将在整个学年继续他们的研究项目，不时在联合国大学开会。除科学研究外，该项目还将为实习生提供有效沟通(陈述)技能、编写研究论文、计算机伦理和研究生院招生程序方面的培训和指导。

Institution: University of New OrleansProposal Number: 0353959PI: Mahdi AbdelguerfiTitle: REU Site: REU in Spatio-Temporal Database SystemsThis project establishes an REU site at the University of New Orleans (UNO) focusing on research experiences for undergraduate students in spatio-temporal database systems (STDS). This REU site will provide research internships to undergraduates in a number of STDS applications, all of them involving modeling of dynamic information in space and time. The specific projects include work on a 3D spatio-temporal GIS at the University of New Orleans (UNO); a digital geospatial mapping and analysis system at the Digital Mapping, Charting, and Geodesy Analysis Program (DMAP) of the Naval Research Laboratory; and developing management tools for different off-the-shelf GIS suites at the Army Corps of Engineers-New Orleans District. The site will support 10 students for a 10-week summer program of full-time research, and the students will continue their research projects throughout the academic year, meeting from time to time at UNO. In addition to the scientific research, the project will provide the interns with training and orientation for effective communication (presentation) skills; preparation of research papers; computer ethics; and graduate school admissions processes.
