9. 1-What is GIS ?
 GIS IS a geographic information system i.e.
. It is system of a computer software, hard
ware and data ,and personnel to collect ,
store , check and integrate , manipulate,
analyze and present information that is tied
to spatial location( in space referenced to
the earth .)
 Geographic (Spatial location)- usually a
geographic location because every thing
happens some where .

10. Cont..
 information- visualization of analysis of data .
 System –linking software , hardware and data
 Personnel –thinking explorer who is a key to
power GIS .
 GIS is a data management (DBM) System that
enables to process spatial data related to attribute
data

11. 2-Spatial and Attribute Data

12. 2-Spatial and Attribute Data

13. 3-Major Tasks and Functions of GIS

14. 4-Components of a GIS
• GIS has 5 of components.

15. 5-Where Does GIS Data Come from?
 Two types of data are input into a
• GIS, spatial and attribute data.
 The most common general sources for
• spatial data are:
 Hard copy maps;
 Aerial photographs;
 Remotely-sensed satellite imagery;
 Point data samples from surveys; and
 Existing digital data files

16. 6-Benefits of Using GIS
 Typical Benefits of Using Automation
• (Cost Savings)
 Better Data Management (More
• Efficient Storage and Updating)
 Faster Information Access (Better
• Decisions)
 Operational Efficiencies
 New Applications

17. 6-Why we study GIS?
 To apply for government plan
 natural resource management;
 highways and transportation;
 Urban Planning, Management & Policy
 Land acquisition and management
 Economic development
 Emergency response and Crime analysis
 Tax assessment

18. Cont…
 Scientific research application
 Geography, geology, hydrology, botany
 Anthropology, sociology, economics,
 political science
 Epidemiology,
 Criminology The relation ship Between GIS and
Other Discipline

19. Water Resources Management
 Water quality and quantity monitoring;
 Aquifers Characterizations
 Surface and Groundwater modeling and
• contamination tracking;
 Rainfall estimation;
 Surface runoff prediction;
 Identifying Ground water potential zone
 Sediment yield production;
 Watershed planning and Management;

20. 7-Geographic model in ARC GIS
 The three basic data model that arc
GIS uses are
 Vector
 Raster
Data model s -vectors
 Vector data: is characterized by the use of
sequential points or vertices to define a linear
segment.
 Each vertex consists of X-coordinate and Y
coordinate.

21. Cont…
• These are
 Points, Lines, Polygon

22. Examples of vector data
Point Data Line data Polygon data
Borehole Rivers, Forest stands
A weather station Roads, Soil classification
areas
An oil well or gas
activity site
Pipelines, etc Administrative
boundaries,
Town PPcarcel
Information
Afire lookout
tower,

23. Raster data structure
 Matrix of square cells represents a
patch of ground o Each cell is a
unit of area within the patch
 Each cell stores a number
 Numbers may be measurements,
counts, or codes
 Geography is represented with
cells
 Good for continuous phenomena
 Elevation, rainfall, temperature
 Air photos
 Vegetation, soil type

24. Cont.…

25. Comparison Between Vector and raster

26. The relation ship between Cell size and Resolution

27. 9-The steps in a GIS project
 Step 1: Identify your problem and objectives
 The first step of the process is to identify the
problem and objective of the analysis.
 What is the problem to solve?
 How is it solved now?
 Are there alternate ways to solve it using a GIS?

28. Step 2: Create a project database
 The second step is to create a project
• database.
 Creating the project database is a
• three-step process.
 The steps are:
 designing the database,
 automating and gathering data for the database,
and managing the database

29. Step 3: Analyze the data
Analyzing data in a GIS ranges from simple
mapping to creating complex spatial models.
• These functions are:
Geometric modeling functions
 Calculating distances,
 generating buffers, and clipping .
Generating Contour
Reclassified slope
calculating areas and perimeters

30. Step 4: Present the results
 The fourth step is to present the results of
• your analysis.
 Your final product should effectively
• communicate your findings to your audience.
 In most cases, the results of a GIS analysis
can best be shown on a map.
 Charts and reports of selected data are two
other ways of presenting your results
