We support the use of spatial data, numeric data, and statistics in research and teaching by the University of Michigan community.

For example, for numeric data we:

Assist in locating and acquiring data sets, especially social science data sets
Assist in using statistical software for data analysis
Ensure data sets of interest to the UM community are cataloged in MIRLYN

For spatial data, we:

Assist in locating and acquiring digital spatial data sets
Assist in using geographic information systems (GIS) software
Maintain an online searchable catalog of digital spatial data, whose content focuses on data of potential interest to the UM community (see this page for background information)
Acquire, store, and provide access to digital spatial data sets in a repository, accessible via the online catalog

We also provide a lab in which you can do work with spatial and numeric data.
