Newsflash

New Faculty joins NCGIA


Two new faculty joined the NCGIA in September 2008. Dr. Nicholas Giudice joined the Department of Spatial Information Science and Engineering as an Assistant Professor. His PhD is in Psychology: Cognitive and Biological Program from the University of Minnesota. His research interests include Multi-modal Spatial Cognition, Functional Equivalence of Spatial Representations, Multi-modal Spatial Displays, Environmental Learning With and Without Vision.  Dr. Reinhard Moratz joined the Department as an Associate Professor. Prior to coming to Maine, Reinhard was Assistant Professor at the University of Bremen, Germany, heading the Human-Robot Interaction Laboratory. Dr. Moratz's research expertise addresses imprecise, incomplete, qualitative, fuzzy, and conflicting spatial knowledge. The NCGIA is delighted to have these two outstanding new faculty join us!
