Mapping these locations is important for identifying the aquifers and populations susceptible to water quality changes caused by natural or anthropogenic sources. Additional research investigates using remote sensing to identify irrigated landscapes in the urban environment. Urban irrigation such as lawn watering can be a significant percentage of the total water budget used by a household. Tyler also enjoys providing the GIS expertise for several projects, including software tools, integrated server systems, mobile solutions, and visualization. He teaches classes and gives presentations on the latest GIS and spatial technology and helps with technology transfer. professional_experience: [] title: Research Geographer
