GIS

A Geographic Information System, or GIS, is ever-emerging, evolving technology that captures, manages, analyzes, and displays location information through interactive maps.

The Center for GIS (CGIS) services and solutions focus around streamlining business processes and effectively communicating important information.

GIS…

  • Tells a story by integrating web-enabled maps, text, and multimedia.
  • Increases efficiency and productivity by connecting the “where” with the “what” of data.
  • Offers organizations a competitive advantage through the ability to visualize data in layers and easily see relationships, patterns, and trends.
  • Enables emergency managers to turn real-time data feeds into on-the-ground situational awareness.
