Abstract

Can We Identify Spatial Universities?
Track: User Presentations - Administration and Policy
Authors: Dave Cowen

The objective of this presentation is to solicit discussion about the merits of identifying universities that foster a comprehensive approach to spatial teaching, research, services and infrastructure. From a public relations standpoint, selection of Spatial Universities would foster replication, encourage innovation and provide examples of best practices. In order to identify candidates there must be consensus about criteria and metrics that reflect success and quality by the broad community.
