Major Application Of GIS
GIS in Mapping:

❖ Mapping is a central function of Geographic Information


System, which provides a visual interpretation of data.
❖ GIS store data in database and then represent it visually
in a mapped format.
❖ People from different professions use map to
communicate.
❖ It is not necessary to be a skilled cartographer to create
maps.
❖ Google map, Bing map, Yahoo map are the best example
for web based GIS mapping solution.
Major Application Of GIS
GIS in Urban Planning:
❖ GIS provides planners, surveyors, and engineers
Spatial query&
with the tools they need to design and map their mapping Urban
neighborhoods and cities. GIS Geo-processing
functions
planning
❖ Visualization, spatial analysis, and spatial modeling
are the most frequently used GIS functions in plan
making.
❖ GIS can help to store, manipulate, and analyze
physical, social, and economic data of a city.
Planners can then use the spatial query and mapping
functions of GIS to analyze the existing situation in
the city. Non-GIS Data Spatial
❖ Through map overlay analysis, GIS can help to Database/ analysis&
data modeling
identify areas of conflict of land development with
the environment by overlaying existing land
development on land suitability maps.
Major Application Of GIS
GIS in Transportation
❖ A specific branch of GIS applied to transportation issues, commonly labeled as
GIS-T, is one of the pioneer GIS application areas.
❖ GIS-T can be a useful tool for a variety of logistics applications.
❖ Many of these logistics applications are based on the GIS-T analysis and
modeling procedures such as the routing and facility location problems.
❖ GIS-T is interdisciplinary in nature and has many possible applications.
❖ Transportation geographers, who have appropriate backgrounds in both
geography and transportation, are well positioned to pursue GIS-T studies and
assist in GIS-T implementations addressing real-world problems.

Major Application Of GIS
GIS In Environment: Design

❖ The GIS is used every day to help protect the Environmental


Environment. analysis construction

❖ The environmental professional uses GIS to


produce maps, inventory species, measure
environmental impact or trace pollutants.
❖ The environmental applications for GIS are Data

collection
almost endless. surveying

❖ It can be used to monitor the environment and


analyze changes.(by S Farog Mostafa)
❖ Such as we can use ArcGIS in Environmental
analysis . planning
Operation/
maintenance
Major Application Of GIS
GIS for Business:

❖ GIS is also used for managing business


information based on its location.
❖ GIS can keep a track of where the customers
are located, site business, target marketing
campaigns, and optimize sales territories and
model retail spending patterns.
❖ Such an added advantage is provided by the
GIS to enhance in making companies more
competitive and successful. (Sita Mishra, GIS
in Indian Retail Industry-A Strategic Tool)
Major Application Of GIS
GIS In Natural Resources Management:
❖ By the help of GIS technology the agricultural, land ,
water and forest resources can be well maintain and
manage.
❖ Foresters can easily monitor forest condition.
❖ Agricultural land includes managing crop yield,
monitoring crop rotation, and more.
❖ Water is one of the most essential constituents of the
environment.
❖ GIS is used to analyze geographic distribution of water
resources.
❖ They are interrelated, i.e. forest cover reduces the
storm water runoff and tree canopy stores
approximately 215,000 tons carbon.
❖ GIS is also used in afforestation.
Major Application Of GIS
GIS In Space Utilization:
❖ GIS helps managers to organize and spatially
visualize space and how it can best be used.
❖ Operational costs can be decreased by more
efficiently using space including managing the
moves of personal and assets as well as the storage
materials.
❖ The 3D visualization in GIS platforms helps planers
to create a feeling of experience like virtual walk
inside the building and rooms before construction.
Major Application Of GIS
GIS for Public Health:
❖ GIS provides the cost effective tool for evaluating
interventions and policies potentially affecting health
outcomes.
❖ GIS analysis, environmental health data is also
helpful in explaining disease patterns of relationships
with social, institutional, technological and natural
environment.
❖ It can be understand the complex spatial temporal
relationship between environmental pollution and
disease, and identifying exposures to environmental
hazards.
❖ GIS can significantly add value to environmental and
public health data.(The application of GIS in
environmental health sciences: opportunities and
limitations.)
