A geographic information system (GIS)

is an information system that is designed to work with data

referenced by spatial or geographic coordinates. In other words,

a GIS is both a database system with specific capabilities for

spatially-reference data, as well [as] a set of operations for working

with data. In a sense, a GIS may be thought of as a higher-order map.

What is GIS ?

Geographic information system is a systematic integrating of

computer hardware, software, and spatial data, for capturing, storing,

displaying, updating manipulating and analysing, in order to solve

complex management problems.
