What is GIS? 

A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer based tool used for displaying a very wide variety of geographically referenced information.  This information or data is typically displayed by maps which help to visualize the information and can be quickly understood.  GIS is a tool used to analyze the various types of data for answering questions, solving problems, determining possible relationships, patterns, or trends and can be used to provide support for any enterprise decision-making.  If you would like to see more about GIS click here. www.esri.com/what-is-gis
