As a joint effort by scholars and professionals from the Center for Geographical Analysis at Harvard University, the Geo-Computation Center for Social Sciences at Wuhan University, the China Data Institute, the RMDS Lab, and some other institutions, a new initiative of “Global Research on COVID-19” was launched on January 2020, which aims to provide an information infrastructure for the spatial study of the new novel coronavirus (COVID-19). The objectives of this project are: (1) to provide data support for the spatial study of COVID-19 at local, regional and global levels; (2) to facilitate quantitative research on spatial spreading and impacts of COVID-19 with advanced methodology and technology; (3) to promote collaborative research on the spatial study of COVID-19; and (4) to build research capacity for future collaborative projects.
