Geographic information systems (GIS) or geospatial information systems is a set of tools that captures, stores, analyzes, manages, and presents data that are linked to location(s). In the simplest terms, GIS is the merging of cartography, statistical analysis, and database technology. GIS systems are used in cartography remote sensing land surveying public utility management, natural resource management precision agriculture photogrammetry geography ... aerial video , and localized search engines As GIS can be thought of as a system, it digitally creates and "manipulates" spatial areas that may be jurisdictional, purpose or application oriented for which a specific GIS is developed. Hence, a GIS developed for an application, jurisdiction, enterprise, or purpose may not be necessarily interoperable or compatible with a GIS that has been developed for some other application, jurisdiction, enterprise, or purpose. What goes beyond a GIS is a spatial data infrastructure (SDI), a concept that has no such restrictive boundaries.

Think GIS At ESRI Ireland - Geographical Resources For Business
A campaign launched by ESRI Ireland to promote Geographic Information Systems in Ireland.
http://www.thinkgis.ie

Extractions: This website is a campaign launched by ESRI Ireland to promote the value that GIS is bringing to organisations on the island of Ireland. Each month, we will be publishing case studies that highlight the enormous variety of maps and geographic analysis that are being created every day using GIS technology. Simply put, a Geographical Information System combines and visualises spatial layers of information about a place to give you a better understanding of events at that location. What layers of information you combine depends on your purpose - finding the best location for a new store, analysing environmental damage, and so on.

http://egsc.usgs.gov/isb/pubs/gis_poster/

Extractions: Poster side 2 Applications of GIS GIS Through History GIS Display Techniques Geographic information system (GIS) technology can be used for scientific investigations, resource management, and development planning. For example, a GIS might allow emergency planners to easily calculate emergency response times in the event of a natural disaster, or a GIS might be used to find wetlands that need protection from pollution. A GIS is a computer system capable of capturing, storing, analyzing, and displaying geographically referenced information; that is, data identified according to location. Practitioners also define a GIS as including the procedures, operating personnel, and spatial data that go into the system. The power of a GIS comes from the ability to relate different information in a spatial context and to reach a conclusion about this relationship. Most of the information we have about our world contains a location reference, placing that information at some point on the globe. When rainfall information is collected, it is important to know where the rainfall is located. This is done by using a location reference system, such as longitude and latitude, and perhaps elevation. Comparing the rainfall information with other information, such as the location of marshes across the landscape, may show that certain marshes receive little rainfall. This fact may indicate that these marshes are likely to dry up, and this inference can help us make the most appropriate decisions about how humans should interact with the marsh. A GIS, therefore, can reveal important new information that leads to better decisionmaking.

http://www.lakegeorgeassociation.org/html/gis.htm

Extractions: A Geographic Information System (GIS) is an automated system that enables a user or analyst to capture, store, integrate, manipulate, analyze and display data that are spatially referenced to the Earth. It can be best described as a high-tech map that replaces traditional cartographic methods which are static, expensive to update, and can only represent one level or specific scale of spatial data per map. Digital Data Geographic Information Systems use digital data that allow the analyst to easily create maps with many different layers or themes at any scale desired. The scale can be changed from 1:24000 to 1:10000. By changing the scale of your final map, you are not changing the scale that the original data was collected at, you are only changing the scale of the map that you are producing. Data can be stored as: Points: Store locations, emergency phone locations, historic sites, or traffic lights
