GIS and its variants support smart business decisions
GIS or Geographic
Information System or Geographical
Information System is a system to
capture, store, analyze, manage and
present data to the connected locations.
The system integrates hardware, software,
and data for capturing, managing,
analyzing, and displaying all forms
of geographically referenced information.
It comprises a GIS
mapping software having applications
for remote sensing, land surveying,
aerial photography, mathematics, photogrammetry,
geography.
GIS refers an information
system that integrates, stores, edits,
analyzes, shares, and displays geographic
information. Its applications allow
users to make interactive queries,
analyze spatial information, edit
data, maps, and present the results
of all these operations. The GIS
Data helps users to see, understand,
question and interpret data to state
the relationship patterns and trends
on the maps, globes, reports, and
charts.
The GIS software
includes desktop GIS, Kalypso, Capaware,
MapWindow GIS, Spatial Database Management
Systems, etc. Spatial data or geographic
information is the data to identify
the geographic location of features
and boundaries on Earth.
Location Intelligence
can combine geographic- and location-related
data with business problems to gain
insights on decision making and optimization
of other important processes and applications.
It organizes and understands the situation
by using the geographic relationships
downloaded in all information.
Location intelligence,
as opposed to GIS,
works across the enterprise to be
used for multiple purposes. These
tools support a number of data sources,
comprising; aerial maps, GIS, consumer
demographics and user records. Location
Intelligence can be directly integrated
into business operations by using
platform integration. It is also used
to describe tools and data employed
to geographically “map”
information by integrating it into
Business Intelligence processes and
tools.
