In order to realize this goal, we have been pursuing research that focuses on sustainable and balanced construction on land,, with an eye towards the future and the establishment of a land knowledge base.

Our key functions include a broad range of research on the overall aspects of the national territory, including the use and preservation of land, regional and urban planning, residential and land policies, traffic construction economy, environment, water resources, GIS and urban innovation, etc. In addition, we are leading the push towards abundant and safe national territory in the 21st century by pursuing future-oriented, practical and empirical site-oriented research that supports the shortt omid-termpolicies of the country.
