About Us

The Earth Observation Laboratory (EOL) is a teaching and research lab for the Yale community specializing in the use of satellite-based remote sensing.  Our workstations have been configured to handle the processing and graphics demands typical in remote sensing.  These workstations use high performance video graphics cards and multiple LCD monitors to access data on our dedicated server. This equipment, coupled with the latest versions of the predominant Remote Sensing and GIS software, provide a strong foundation to support the geospatial needs of the Yale community.

Yale students and faculty members interested in learning if this technology could contribute to your research are encouraged to visit the Center. EOL staff can review your project goals and discuss how, or if, remote sensing and satellite imagery may be integrated into your research.

Anyone at Yale with experience working with satellite images is welcome to use the lab. Simply complete a EOL Account Request form and drop by for a visit! For those without remote sensing experience you may want to explore the educational offerings of the Center.

The Center is located in Room 119 of the Environmental Science Center at:
