2. قسم الجيوماتكس What is GIS Geomatics is an evolving discipline concerning the acquisition, transformation, management, distribution, and sharing of Geographical Information. Geomatics embraces a board community including surveying and geomatics engineers, geographers, planners, landscape architecture, computer scientists and geosciences. Lecture 1: GIS Components

3. قسم الجيوماتكس What is GIS Geographic Information: Geographic: (Where?) It refers to the localisation and the form of Objects or Phenomena related to the Real World. Information: (What?) It refers to the quantitative and qualitative non- geometric description of the object or the phenomena in the real world. Lecture 1: GIS Components

4. قسم الجيوماتكس What is GIS Geographic Information System: System: (Interaction and interdependent components) It refers to the Technological Infrastructure, People, Data and Methods that deal with Objects or Phenomena of the Real World.

5. قسم الجيوماتكس Definitions of GIS Geographic Information System As a Software: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are computerized software for the input, manipulation, storage, analysis and output of geographic information. As a System: Geographic Information System (GIS) is a system of computer Software, hardware, data and personnel to help manipulate, analyse and present information that is tied to a spatial location. Geographic Information Science (GISc) As a Science: Consider fundamental questions raised by the use of systems and technologies that deal with geographic information (NCGIA) Lecture 1: GIS Components

6. قسم الجيوماتكس Purposes of GIS Input: Gathering Data from various sources Manipulation: Converting data from one form to another Management : This include the way of storage in order to retrieve, select and view data easily and efficiently Analysis: Perform Query and Spatial Analysis in order to produce new information Visualization: Rendering Geographic Information in various ways depending on the application A Geographical Information System is used to perform five main tasks: Lecture 1: GIS Components
