GIS Overview

GIS (Geographic Information System): computer information system that can input, store, manipulate, analyze, and display geographically referenced (spatial) data to support decision making processes.

Tools for a GIS• Hardware• Computer• Printer / Plotter • Digitizer• Scanner

• GIS Desktop Software (ESRI, Inc. – ArcView)• CAD Software (AutoDesk - AutoCAD)• Multimedia (Photos, Video, 3D Models)• World Wide Web (ESRI, Inc. – ARCIMS)• Personnel

GIS DataRaster Images - grids

“pixels” a location and value satellite images and aerial photos
