Geography Research Groups
Kelompok riset di lingkungan Program Studi Pendidikan Geografi UPI yang bergerak di bidang mitigasi bencana, keberlanjutan lingkungan, sains geospasial, manajemen sumber daya, dan geografi sosial-budaya.
Disaster and Environmental Sustainability
Research group focusing on disaster resilience and sustainable environmental management.
Description
Indonesia, as a disaster-prone region, requires a comprehensive study of the natural and human dynamics that give rise to various disasters. The exploitation of resources to meet needs and development often leads to environmental damage and disasters. Geography, a science that serves as an integrated bridge between the natural and human sciences, is a valuable tool. Through remote sensing and GIS technology, geography provides solutions for responsible environmental management, achieving sustainable development and disaster resilience.
Objective
To provide a comprehensive study of disaster mitigation, disaster resilience, and responsible environmental management to achieve environmental sustainability, including sustainable tourism and sustainable development.

GeoSPACE Research Group
Society, Place, Culture, and Education Research Group.
Description
GeoSPACE (Society, Place, Culture, and Education) is a research group focused on the study of social, cultural, and educational geography, with an emphasis on the interrelationships between humans, space, and the environment in a socio-cultural context. This research group also integrates geospatial studies through spatial data, GIS, remote sensing, and spatial analysis to understand socio-cultural patterns, processes, and dynamics at various regional scales.
Objective
To analyze the spatial relationships between society, culture, and space based on spatial evidence, as well as developing innovative geography education that is contextual, adaptive to local potential, and responsive to global challenges.

Sustainable Environment and natural resources management
Research group focusing on sustainable natural resources and environmental management.
Description
The research group's primary area of study is natural resource and environmental management. The research focuses on water resources, land resources, and the environment, with a focus on River Basins (WS) and Watersheds (DAS), Coastal and Coastal Areas, and Remote Areas. Mapping, Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology are utilized for inventory, mapping, modeling, and downstream analysis.
Objective
To optimize natural resource conservation, watershed management, and ecological modeling for responsible regional development and the creation of advanced instructional materials.
