A GIS is a system or a set of tools that interpret geographical or geospatial data or information. It integrates hardware, software, data, and services for processing geographically referenced data. This system digitizes the received geospatial data and processes them (store, interpret, analyze, and manipulate) to provide the required output. The major end-users of GIS are the Government, Transportation, Natural Resources, Military/Law Enforcement, Utilities, and Communication and Telecom sectors. GIS is used for disaster management, finding location details, viewing digital maps, marketing, designing facilities, and other uses.
