GIS stands for Geographic Information Systems. A GIS stores, analyzes, and visualizes data for geographic positions on Earth’s surface.
It’s a computer-based tool that examines spatial relationships, patterns, and trends in geography.
GIS mapping produces visualizations of geospatial information. The 4 main ideas of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are:
Create geographic data.
Manage it in a database.
Analyze and find patterns.
Display it on a map.
Because viewing and analyzing data on maps impacts our understanding of data, we can make better decisions using GIS. Explore how Lee County leverages GIS technology by visiting our Maps & Apps Gallery at [ Ссылка ].
