What does a Geothermal heating and cooling do? (I appreciate it if you could type the answer) Solution Geothermal heating heats the system by transferring heat from the ground to the system. Geothermal cooling cools the system by transferring heat from the system to the ground. Underground temperatures are constant ( do not vary much) with the seasons. Geothermal works on the principle that the ground beneath is warmer then the outside air in the winter and cooler than the outside air in the summer. Inserting some mechanism the heat can be transferred to and from the home..

1. What does the acronym GIS stands for? List any 4 (four) components/sections of a
GIS________What is a Basemap?_________List 1 (one) important use of a basemap in
GIS.________List 2 types of map scales________How are geospatial feature data stored in a
computer or system_____Name 1 (one) GIS software.______What does the acronym ESRI
stands for?_____
Solution
1) The acronym GIS is sometimes used for studying of geographic information systems in a
large domain with in the border academic principle of geoinformatics
2) The COmponents of GIS are hardware,software ,data,people,and method tools for input and
manupliation of geographic information
3) Base map refers to collection of GIS data and orthorectified imagery to form background
setting of map
4) Base maps are used for the projection of particular place with digitilisation
5) For topographic map scale is
a) 1:100,000quads
b)1:250,000quads
6)Geospatial feature data is stored in the form of digitilisation
7) GRASSGIS,GVSIG
8) Environmental Research Institute
