  2. Geographical Information System • A GIS is a particular form of information system applied to geographical data. • An Information System is a set of processes executed on row data to produce information which will be useful when making decisions.

  3. USE OF GIS • In a geographic information system, information is characterized spatially. • In a GIS the common purpose is decision making to manage: • Land • Resources • Transportation • Retailing • OR any other spatially distributed activity

  6. ARC GIS

  7. GIS Layers • Three types of • GIS layers- • User Interface • Data Visualization • Base maps

  8. Evolution of GIS Evolved from different fields in which development has led to the GIS as we now know it. • Cartography (high quality drafting) • CAD / computer graphics • Surveying • Remote sensing • Computer technology (made it affordable)

  9. Item in GIS are classified into separate components • Degree of hardness or tangibility • Position in the data flow

  10. According to hardness or tangibility • Hardware • Software • Orgware

  11. Hardware • Micro pc - at least a 486DX with minimum 16 megabytes ram, 1 GB hard disk with color monitor (at least 256 colors) • Scanner and /or digitizer • Inkjet printer and/or plotter • Any large data storage device

  12. Software • IDRISI • ILWIS • ARCVIEW • PC ARCINFO • MAPINFO • OZ-GIS • ER MAPPER • GRASS • ATLAS

  13. Orgware • Organization about the use of hardware and software • Man, their methods and organization • “Education and training” of staff at all levels.

  14. Technology Involved • The Possibilities are unlimited….. • Environmental impact assessment • Resource management • Land use planning • Tax Mapping • Water and Sanitation Mapping • Transportation routing and more

  15. GIS in technology

  16. Development of GIS • Before any GIS application is developed, it is important to keep in mind the target users and their need • Too much information should not be packed in one application • Care should be taken to make the application focused and user-friendly • Need for development would usually arise by regular interactions with the data users over a period of time.

  17. Application area of GIS • Population • Bio-Diversity • Global-Warming • Urbanization • Pollution • Conservation • Land-use • Oceans • Defense/Security • Business Efficiency • Water • Development • Crime • Health • Education • Logistics • Energy • Government • Globalization • Agriculture/Food

  18. GIS works as • GIS data has a • spatial/geographic reference- • This might be a reference that describes • A feature on the earth using: • A latitude & longitude • A national coordinate system • An address • A district • A wetland identifier • A road name
