MIGIS: Mindful Intelligence in GIS

MIGIS is an interdisciplinary research initiative that integrates spatial thinking, geospatial modeling, and explainable artificial intelligence to address critical challenges in urban health, environmental justice, and data-driven decision-making. Led by Dr. Lingbo Liu at Harvard University’s Center for Geographic Analysis, MIGIS emphasizes not only the technical rigor of geospatial intelligence but also the ethical, human-centered, and policy-relevant dimensions of spatial data science. MIGIS stands at the intersection of spatial modeling, digital equity, and open science. Its core mission is to develop mindful and responsible spatial analytics—tools and methods that are not only powerful but also interpretable, inclusive, and actionable. The initiative contributes to global research through open-source toolkits, reproducible workflows, and collaborative platforms that empower governments, researchers, and communities to build healthier and more equitable cities.
