This document defines and describes a geographic information system (GIS). It lists the group members and then defines geographic as relating to locations with coordinates, information as organized data that can be displayed as maps and images, and system as interconnected components for data functions. It identifies key GIS components as hardware, software, data, and people. It outlines the GIS process from data capture to display and lists common uses as including police, transport, oil, and emergency services.

- 3. GEOGRAPHIC Implies that locations of the data items are known, or can be calculated, in terms of Geographic coordinates (Latitude, Longitude)
- 4. INFORMATION Implies that the data in a GIS are organized to yield useful knowledge, often as colored maps and images, but also as statistical graphics, tables, and various on- screen responses to interactive queries.
- 5. SYSTEM Implies that a GIS is made up from several inter- related and linked components with different functions. Thus, GIS have functional capabilities for data capture, input, manipulation, transformation, visualization, combinations, query, analysis, modeling and output.
- 6. KEY COMPONENT OF GIS
- 7. HARDWARE Used in stand-alone or networked configurations. Chief part of GIS such as Computer etc. Help to run centralized computer servers to desktop
- 8. SOFTWRAE Analyze and display geographic information. Provides function and tools needed.
- 9. DATA Collects the geographic and other tabular data It assemble to use specifications and requirements Integrate spatial data with other existing data resources Key functionality is to store the data.
- 10. PEOPLE Developers and users are quiet important. Ranges from Specialists to Normal Users
- 11. PROCEDURE Drafting Designs Implementing Plans Integration into the business strategy and operation Requires necessary investments in hardware and software
- 12. GIS PROCESS Capture Data Register Map Base Interpret Data Convert Data to Digital Format Store Data in Computer Process Data Display Results
- 13. 4 M’S OF GIS Land Use Environmental Cadastral Assessment Agriculture Drainage Network Hydrology Model Terrains 4 M’s Measurement Mapping Monitoring Modelling
- 14. CREATING GIS
- 15. ELEMENT OF GIS The location of the geographic information – maps use a coordinate system to allow locations to be read The shape (geometry) of the geographic information – the shape of the features and themes are drawn onto the map The description of the geographic information – a legend provides descriptions of the shapes drawn on the map

- 17. USES OF GIS GIS has evolved into a technology that is used by a huge number of industries and agencies to help plan, design, engineer, build and maintain information infrastructures that effects our everyday lives. The table below lists common users of GIS
- 18. USES OF GIS INDUSTRY US OF GIS Police Transport Oil Emergency departments e.g. ambulance Crime mapping to target resources Monitoring Routes Monitoring ships and managing pipelines Planning quickest routes
