Stories
UHH Spatial Data Analysis and Visualization Lab
The UH Hilo provides cutting edge technology to better understand the dynamics of our island.  Dr. Ryan Perroy, Assistant Professor at UH Hilo in the Department of Geography & Environmental Science and director of the UH Hilo Spatial Data Analysis and Visualization (SDAV) research lab, enlightened our club with an overview of a number of ongoing research projects including mapping erosion at the summit of Maunakea to detecting invasive tropical plant species with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). He is also in the midst of a multi-year project assessing coastal erosion rates and impacts from sea-level rise at three different locations across Hawaii island, using a combination of existing imagery and topographic datasets and new geospatial data collected with unmanned aerial vehicles.
