GIS and GPS Tools geographers use to get information about the world

GIS- Geographic Information System A computerized system that captures, stores, analyzes, and displays geographic data. It can be used to produce maps. Information can be produced in layers and those layers can be compared to show relationships among different kinds of information.

GPS- Global Positioning System Mostly used for navigation but can also be used to find a precise location. -Satellites placed in space -Tracking stations exist to monitor and control satellites -A receiver that can locate satellites
