A geographic information system (GIS) is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present all types of spatial or geographical data. The acronym GIS is sometimes used for geographical information science or geospatial information studies to refer to the academic discipline or career of working with geographic information systems and is a large domain within the broader academic discipline of Geoinformatics.What goes beyond a GIS is a spatial data infrastructure, a concept that has no such restrictive boundaries.
In a general sense, the term describes any information systemthat integrates, stores, edits, analyzes, shares, and displays geographic information. GIS applications are tools that allow users to create interactive queries (user-created searches), analyze spatial information, edit data in maps, and present the results of all these operations.[2][3] Geographic information science is the science underlying geographic concepts, applications, and systems.
GIS is a broad term that can refer to a number of different technologies, processes, and methods. It is attached to many operations and has many applications related to engineering, planning, management, transport/logistics, insurance, telecommunications, and business. For that reason, GIS and location intelligenceapplications can be the foundation for many location-enabled services that rely on analysis and visualization.
GIS can relate unrelated information by using location as the key index variable. Locations or extents in the Earth space-time may be recorded as dates/times of occurrence, and x, y, and z coordinates representing, longitude, latitude, and elevation, respectively. All Earth-based spatial-temporal location and extent references should, ideally, be relatable to one another and ultimately to a "real" physical location or extent. This key characteristic of GIS has begun to open new avenues of scientific inquiry.
Fields
A geographic information system is also known as a GIS. These systems are designed to capture, analyse, store, manipulate and present a variety of geographical data. These systems can be used with engineering, management, logistics and telecommunications.
I use the GIS to see different layers of the land.
A database of information that be accessed by many individuals or a network for the use of editing, creating, and manipulating data and information. In GIS, an enterprise database schema is used to distribute and maintain geographic data in the same way.
GIS which stands for Geographic Information Systems is a computerized data management system used to capture, store, manage, retrieve, analyze, and display spatial information.
Geographic information system is information that is giving in a few ways. The information is capture, store, manipulate, analyze and managed.
