This is the home page of Jeremy Mennis, Assistant Professor of Geography and Urban Studies at  Temple University.  My interests are in the theory and application of geographic information systems and science.

Temple University offers a broad array of Geographic Information Science resources, including GIS and RS software, dedicated high-quality computing labs, and a range of courses.  Research activities address both theoretical and applied topics.

Case Study: Air Toxic Releases in New Jersey
(from Mennis, J. and Jordan, L., 2005. The distribution of environmental equity: exploring spatial nonstationarity in multivariate models of air toxic releases. Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 95(2): 249-268)
Introduction
Geographic information systems (GIS) and multivariate regression are used to analyze socioeconomic inequity in the spatial distribution of New Jersey air toxic release facilities listed in the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Toxic Release Inventory (TRI).
