G.R.I.D. Lab

Overview

The Geo-Research, Imaging, & Design computer lab (_GRID Lab_), strictly speaking, is not a SDSS-CC resource, it can be a useful resource for workflows that require Windows (only) based software and other GUI interfaces. GRID Lab consists of onsite resources, including computers, scanners, and wide-format printers, and remotely accessible Virtual Machines (VMs). For more information, see the gridlab docs:
