What is GIS?

Response:
GIS stands for Geographic Information system. It is a system that creates, manages, analyzes, and displays all different types of geospatial data. GIS can show different types of data - such as streets, structures, tree cover, vegetation, various types of imagery, etc on a single map.  This enables people to quickly see, find, analyze, and understand different patterns and relationships. This provides a foundation for mapping and analysis which is used in almost every industry. It results in improved communication and efficiency as well as better management and decision-making.
