    Didàctica en Ciències de la Informació Geogràfica

    GRUMETS coordina el Màster Universitari en Teledetecció i SIG, el de més llarga tradició a Catalunya (1992), i el primer Oficial en Ciència i Tecnologia de la Informació Geogràfica. Els seus alumnes estan treballant en empreses del sector, administracions (Ajuntaments, Generalitat, Diputacions, etc), Centres de Recerca i Universitats, l’Agència Europea de l’Espai, la Comissió Europea, etc.

    Desenvolupament de programari

    Val la pena esmentar el desenvolupament de programari científic, principalment materialitzat a través del projecte MiraMon. MiraMon té actualment més de 200 000 usuaris en 42 països i disposa de versions client i servidor d'Internet, així com les clàssiques versions d'escriptori Lector Universal de Mapes i MiraMon Professional (versions de 32 i 64 bits, ambdues paral·lelitzades per a màxima velocitat), amb 29 anys d'experiència (aquesta última amb més de 120 mòduls d'aplicacions, incloent funcionalitats bàsiques, avançades i d'alt nivell en SIG i teledetecció i un dels principals lemes de GRUMETS: tots els projectes han de ser aplicats per demostrar que realment funcionen amb dades reals). Cal destacar també el Gestor Universal de Metadades Geoespacials, GeM+.
