    • Geographic Information Technologies

      • Global Positioning Systems (GPS)
        • a system of earth-orbiting satellites which can provide precise (100 meter to sub-cm.) location on the earth’s surface (in lat/long coordinates or equiv.)
      • Remote Sensing (RS)
        • use of satellites or aircraft to capture information about the earth’s surface
        • Digital ortho images a key product (map accurate digital photos)
      • Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
        • Software systems with capability for input, storage, manipulation/analysis and output/display of geographic (spatial) information

    • BENEFITS OF GIS

      • improves/enhances the effects of physical/environmental growth
      • better management of resources
      • adding new value-added services
      • perform analysis on spatial and non spatial components
      • fast recall of data
      • ability for complex analysis
      • recalling of non spatial data through object location
      • display of information in a different light/view
      • multiple scenario in planning can be performed easily
