Study Notes
Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
- GIS, or Geographic Information System, offers exciting new ways to use maps.
- GIS combines a computer, specialized GIS software, a map, and relevant data for the map area.
- Allows for quick data display on a map
- Enables bringing up diverse data types together.
- Facilitates identification of patterns and connections.
- Aids in making quicker and better-informed decisions.
Key Questions for Understanding GIS
- "GIS" stands for Geographic Information System
- Software is part of GIS, allows displaying data very quickly
- GIS depends on data, that is anything that can be shown on a map, including names, addresses or areas at risk
- Data is shown in layers, with each having one theme shown on street maps
- Data is linked to lat/lon
- Zebra crossing example near school
- Enables users to obtain latitude and longitude.
- GIS is used e.g. crime-fighting and delivering parcels
- GIS is different than paper maps, better in many ways and helps you track where your surname has spread
