POLIS is a service in charge of managing material and human resources for scientific computing. It is composed of: a developers' office (AMAP-DEV) which defines and prioritises needs in terms of software development (excluding Capsis and Pl@ntNet platforms); a scientific data management group (AMAP-DATA) in charge of organising digital scientific data produced by the lab activity (data management plan, storage, archiving and dissemination of scientific data); a geographic information system (AMAP-GIS) dedicated to the management of remote sensing data and the cartographic products derived from research activities; a high-performance computing support (AMAP-HPC); and a group for system administration (AMAP-SYS) that manages and maintains the servers and virtual machines of the lab. Philippe Verley (IRD Research Engineer) is in charge of POLIS. Strategic choices and major decisions are taken by a steering committee that includes the management team and heads of the 3 main scientific lines (Axes).
