Geographic Information System (GIS)
A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a system designed to collect, store, manage, analyze, and present data that includes location-based information. It links spatial data, such as coordinates or addresses, with other types of data, allowing for advanced analyses and visualizations.
GIS consists of hardware, software, data, users, and workflows. It is widely used in fields such as urban planning, environmental monitoring, logistics, and business analytics.
In urban planning, GIS supports infrastructure mapping and project design considering geographic and demographic factors. In logistics, it helps optimize routes and track fleet positions in real time.
