Remote Sensing And G.I.S.

Introduction: A large variety of information systems are available for various applications. Figure given below describes different types of such systems. This module will focus on Geographical Information System (GIS), one of the important spatial information systems with a capability to handle spatial information (information distributed in space). Finger:- Different types of information systems Definitions ·          A powerful set of tools for collecting, storing, retrieving at will, transforming and displaying spatial data from the real world. ·          A system for capturing, storing, checking, manipulating, analysing, and displaying data which are spatially referenced to earth. ·          An information technology which stores, analyses, and displays both spatial and non-spatial data. ·          An automated set of functi...
