From Map to GIS

Progression Map Web maps/ Web GIS GIS (local software)

Comparison Paper Map Web Map/ Web GIS GIS Software Display Data Display at multiple scales Query map features Display tabular or graphic data associated with map features Complex, on the fly queries

Map  Web Map  GIS A map is static, a GIS is dynamic A map has a single scale, a GIS is infinately scaleable A map shows spatial relationships, while a GIS shows both spatial relationships and tabular data
