Geographic Information Systems

'A geographic information system is a system for capturing, storing, analyzing and managing data and associated attributes which are spatially referenced to the earth. In the strictest sense, it is a computer system capable of integrating, storing, editing, analyzing, sharing, and displaying geographically-referenced information. In a more generic sense, GIS is a tool that allows users to create interactive queries (user created searches), analyze the spatial information, edit data, maps, and present the results of all these operations.'

GIS and GPS (Global Position Systems) technologies are everywhere and in everything. Ever wonder how that on-board car navigation system works? Using a GIS database and GPS tracking capabilities, you can now find your way around the world. GIS is also used extensively for government services such as land records and parcel databases, natural resource management, transportation and much more.
