Director's Message

Since opening our doors in 2002, The Parsons Institute for Information Mapping (PIIM) at The New School has positioned itself as a prominent authority in the field of Knowledge Visualization.

Our work incorporates cutting-edge research with the capability to develop real-world, enterprise-quality, engineering solutions. Each day we seek to develop new methods and applications to accomplish complex analytic tasks leveraging Advanced Visualization techniques.

We support various platforms for partnerships and many avenues to transfer our knowledge and technologies into academia, government, and industry. Our staff is comprised of the best and brightest individuals who have a true dedication to the seamless integration of both design and technology.

Our staff is honored to receive tremendous support from The New School, its many departments, and The Office of the President. We continue to strengthen our relationships with all university departments with new and exciting initiatives in social media networking, advanced computing, and information visualization.

As Director of PIIM I have had the honor of overseeing the delivery of an Advanced Knowledge Visualization system for the United States Congress – The Geospace and Media Tool – along with numerous other R&D efforts for government and industry partners.

I extend my sincere thanks to everyone who has worked with and alongside our team. I look forward to collaborating with you in the many years to come.
