MSU's GIS (hereafter MSUGIS) was originally conceived as a way to present deferred maintenance information in an easy to understand manner. MSUGIS has the ability to run many different dynamic queries against the deferred maintenance data and display the results in the form of color coded maps, charts and graphs.
Since work first began on MSUGIS in 1999, it became apparent that the utility of this system could be extended beyond deferred maintenance to other items that will aid in the process of planning the future of MSU's facilities and resources. Because of this, MSUGIS is an ever growing tool with new features being added almost daily. |

Statistically speaking, it is inevitable that life exists in one form or another elsewhere in the largest known container we currently call the universe. It is not, however, inevitable that humankind will be able to communicate with these life forms from the limiting factors of time, distance, and intelligence.
Hence forth, our goal is not to specifically find life in other locales, but rather to help in the discovery of other anomalies that will require further investigation. It is, after all, our inquisitive minds that make us tick.
