The Digital Design and GIS & Remote Sensing Laboratory, formerly Computer Aided Design Laboratory, belonging to the Teaching Experiment Centre of Architecture and Civil Engineering Academy, was established in 1995. The laboratory is located in the Zengchengkui Building, room 323, whose total area is around 180 square meters. It focuses on new techniques for architecture and urban planning, especially the use of GIS and remote sensing in the field of monitoring and analyzing urban environment. After many years of construction, the laboratory has more than 1 million Yuan of equipment assets. Main equipment: 3D virtual reality projection system, 3D laser scanner Leica P40, Ebee Unmanned aerial vehicle, senior plotter, drawing scanner, handheld GPS devices, also with PKPM, DESAI ARCHT, FAST Urban planning software and other teaching software.

  There are several professional teachers and 2 technicians in The Digital Design and GIS & Remote Sensing Laboratory. The teaching courses offered: , , < digital representation of architecture design>, < software application in urban planning>, , as well as all kinds of student design work and graduate design. In addition to the teaching tasks, the laboratory undertakes various research tasks, and obtains a number of research achievements.
