Introduction to Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
A Geographic Information System (GIS) integrates hardware, software, and data for capturing, managing, analyzing, and displaying geographically referenced information. GIS allows us to view, interpret, and visualize data in various forms, revealing relationships, patterns, and trends through maps, globes, reports, and charts. Explore the components, applications, and distinctions between popular GIS tools like QGIS and ArcGIS, as well as the types of data used in GIS such as topographic maps, toponyms, and aerial imagery.
