The Geospatial Analysis and Modeling of Ecological Systems (GAMES) laboratory in the Department of Biology at the University of Central Florida was developed to integrate GIS and remote sensing technology with ecological modeling to simulate dynamic, spatially- explicit patterns and processes at scales ranging from individual organisms to landscapes. 

The lab resides in Room 140 of the Biological Sciences Building, and consists of five Pentium, ethernet-connected computers operating Windows NT 4.0. These computers are used to operate the remote sensing/image processing (e.g., PCI EASI-PACE, IDL, Adobe Photoshop), GIS (Arc/Info NT, ArcView 3.0), and other miscellaneous (e.g., Visual C++, Fortran 90, S-Plus) software. Additional hardware includes a Trimble differential correcting GPS unit, a Calcomp digitizing tablet, a Umax flatbed scanner, a HP Deskjet 1600CM color/bw ink jet printer, a HP Laserjet 5L printer and a large format, HP Plotter.
