Center for Interdisciplinary Geospatial Information Technologies

Students want more work-based learning? DONE! At the Geospatial Center, we ALREADY are putting students to work in our lab, doing real-world applications, such as helping Mississippi communities update their 911 emergency addressing systems. Being able to put GIS experience on their resumes can not only show them the value of this work, it can also be a life-changing foot-in-the-door at--or even BEFORE--graduation!

New Book Release: The New Geography of Homeland Security By David J. Alexander https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FTMWJVLZ?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_2&storeType=ebooks

Part of the America’s Fault Lines series (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F9VVQQCG?binding=kindle_edition&ref=dbs_dp_sirpi )

“Security is no longer about the border—it’s about the map, and who gets to draw the line.”

Homeland security is being redrawn. Once defined by borders and barriers, it now unfolds across invisible networks, predictive models, and fractured realities.

In The New Geography of Homeland Security, I explore how power, risk, and protection are mapped—and how the homeland itself has become the terrain of governance. Drawing on two decades of homeland strategy experience, the book reframes security as a spatial project structured around five geographies: sovereignty, power, risk, protection, and exclusion.

This is both diagnosis and warning: the borders of belonging are being redrawn not on land, but in code.

Available now in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle editions. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FTMWJVLZ?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_2&storeType=ebooks
