Geographic Information System (GIS)

Geographic Information System (GIS) is a conceptualized framework that provides the ability to capture and analyze spatial and geographic data. GIS applications are computer based tools that allow the user to create interactive queries,  store and edit spatial and non-spatial data, analyze spatial information output, and visually share the results of these operations by presenting them as maps.

GIS are utilized in multiple technologies, processes, techniques and methods. They are attached to various operations and numerous applications, that relate to: engineering, planning, management, transport/logistics, insurance, telecommunications, and business. For this reason, GIS and location intelligence applications are at the foundation of location-enabled services, that rely on geographic analysis and visualization.
