What is GIS?

![Page 8: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based system including software, hardware, people, and geographic information
A GIS can: create, edit, query, analyze, and display map information on the computer
![Page 9: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Geographic Information System
• Geographic – Most of the data collected is associated with some location in space.
• Information – characteristics (data), can be used to provide
meaningful information about a given location • System – running operation on the information and
associated to the geography – which requires hardware, networks, software, data, and operational procedures
![Page 10: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Who uses GIS? • International organizations
– The World Bank, UNEP, FAO, WHO, etc. • Private industry
– Transport, Real Estate, etc. • Government
– Ministries of Environment, Housing, Agriculture, etc. – Local Authorities, Cities, Municipalities, etc. – Provincial Agencies for Planning, Parks, Transportation,
etc. • Non-profit organizations/NGO’s • Academic and Research Institutions
![Page 11: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What can you do with a GIS?
• The possibilities are unlimited… – Resource management – Land use planning – Water and Sanitation Mapping – Electricity network mapping – Transportation routing – Environmental impact assessment
![Page 12: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How does a GIS work? • GIS data has a spatial/geographic
reference
– Such as:
• a latitude & longitude • a national coordinate system • an address • a district • a wetland identifier • a road name
![Page 13: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Geography and Databases • A GIS stores information about the world as
a collection of thematic layers that can be linked together by geography

Two fundamental types of data
• Vector – A series of x,y coordinates – For discrete data represented as points, lines, polygons
• Raster – Grid and cells – For continuous data such as elevation, slope, surfaces
• A Desktop GIS should be able to handle both types of data effectively!
![Page 16: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Representing Spatial Elements
Raster
Stores images as rows and columns of numbers with a Digital Value/Number (DN) for each cell.
Units are usually represented as square grid cells that are uniform in size.
Data is classified as “continuous” (such as in an image), or “thematic” (where each cell denotes a feature type.
Numerous data formats (TIFF, GIF, ERDAS.img etc)
![Page 18: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Vector
Allows user to specify specific spatial locations and assumes that geographic space is continuous, not broken up into discrete grid squares
We store features as sets of X,Y coordinate pairs.
Representing Spatial Elements
![Page 19: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Entity Representations
Points - simplest element
Lines (arcs) - set of connected points
Polygons - set of connected lines
We typically represent objects in space as three distinct spatial elements:
We use these three spatial elements to represent real world features and attach locational information to them.
![Page 20: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• In the raster data model, the cell value (Digital Number) is the attribute. Examples: brightness, landcover code, SST, etc.
• For vector data, attribute records are linked to point, line & polygon features. Can store multiple attributes per feature. Vector features are linked to attributes by a unique feature number.
Attributes
![Page 21: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Raster vs. Vector
Raster Advantages
The most common data format
Easy to perform mathematical and overlay operations
Satellite information is easily incorporated
Better represents “continuous”- type data
Vector Advantages
Accurate positional information that is best for storing discrete thematic features (e.g., roads, shorelines, sea-bed features.
Compact data storage requirements
Can associate unlimited numbers of attributes with specific features
![Page 22: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ITS](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcc352e18e94066207f5c3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Other features of a GIS • Produce good cartographic products
(translation = maps) • Generate and maintain metadata • Use and share geoprocessing models • Managing data in a geodatabase using
data models for each sector
