Through its Center of Excellence in Remote Sensing Education and Research (CERSER), Elizabeth City State University (ECSU) has partnered in a trio of National Science Foundation projects related to remote sensing of ice sheets and cyberinfrastructure. This program is headed by Dr. Linda Bailey Hayden.
The goal of the ECSU Center of Excellence in Remote Sensing Education and Research (CERSER) is to develop and implement innovative and relevant research collaborations focused on ice sheet, coastal, ocean, and marine research. CERSER is also the home of the IEEE-Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society Eastern North Carolina Chapter #03181 and Student Chapter Branch #66221.
