About the College The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) is a pioneer of purpose‑driven science and Cornell University's second largest college. We work across disciplines to tackle the challenges of our time through world‑renowned research, education, and outreach. Our focus on three overlapping concerns is: understanding the world's complex, interlocking systems; ensuring access to nutritious food and a healthy environment as a fundamental human right; and supporting a prosperous global future through local community engagement.
The New York State Integrated Pest Management Program (NYSIPM), branded as Cornell Integrated Pest Management (Cornell IPM), is housed at Cornell AgriTech and is a translational research program of CALS. Cornell IPM leads research initiatives and provides research‑based educational outreach to communities throughout the region. It is comprised of 36 faculty and staff, located in Geneva, Ithaca, and elsewhere in the state, with expertise spanning education, applied science, research, and development of analytical decision‑support tools.
iMapInvasives is an online mapping and data platform used to track and manage invasive species. Core technical components include a PostgreSQL database, ArcGIS server, Java web application, and cloud hosting through AWS. The front‑end uses vanilla JavaScript, React, and the ArcGIS API for JavaScript.
