Located at the School of Law, the National Remote Sensing and Space Law Center was established in 2000 and serves the state and the nation by addressing the legal aspects of emerging remote sensing, geographical information systems, and related geospatial information technologies. It is an internationally recognized research, advisory, and training resource. While there are several European and Canadian centers dealing with the legal issues of space and aviation, this is the first and only legal research center of its kind in the United States. The Center hosts visiting scholars, publishes the Journal of Space Law and has published a number of major books on space remote sensing and issues. It also sponsors a wide variety of activities including live webcasts, workshops like A Legal Assistants' Guide to Legal Applications of Geospatial Information and the 1st International Conference on the State of Remote Sensing Law.
