Cartography and geographic information systems are developed on the basis of cartography and belong to the second-level disciplines under the science-based geography (first-level discipline). Research directions: spatial data expression and management; network GIS and geographic information services; virtual geographic environment and augmented reality; high-performance geographic computing; spatiotemporal data mining and knowledge discovery; geographic artificial intelligence; spatial statistics and analysis; social geographic computing; crowd source GIS; indoor positioning and location services; smart city (taking Wuhan University as an example).

The Master's Degree in Subject Teaching (Geography) is a master's degree that aims at cultivating practical teaching abilities and teaching theories, and is mainly focused on employment.
