Guide to GIS Data


How to get GIS technology for best management practices


The new technology known as GIS or Geographic Information Systems is similar in some conceptual ways to GPS (Global Positioning Systems) but it's also inherently different. GIS works to "tag" items for spatial and numeric inventory.

Large business and government structures use GIS to keep track of both mobile and static assets. Take a look at what business GIS data technology has to offer you.

Businesses and civic organizations use GIS to:

1. Tag static assets for municipal inventory (street signs, hydrants or storm-water facilities, etc.).
2. Track the use of mobile assets like machinery or analyze and predict traffic patterns.
3. Keep general inventory, especially over multiple facilities.


Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Free your GIS data sets GIS or 'geospatial' data providers enhance your records by promoting the transfer of traditional paper records onto specific computer tools like CAD or proprietary software; with these strategies, you get better enabled management of the data you have for future design and administration.

I recommend:  Autodesk has helped multiple municipal clients get their GIS data models and work up GIS systems.

Find a GIS data provider online When you have a GIS data model set up to your desired specs, you can share with clients or partners by putting your tools online with servers and server-assisted web pages so that your tools and data are easily accessible from remote locations.

I recommend:  GIS Dynamics offers web-based GIS for sharing with "outside parties" and showing off proprietary GIS data systems. GIS.com also offers a free GIS data download called ArcGIS Explorer. Other GIS data providers include Tele Atlas and NAVTEQ.

Get GIS consulting For many organizations either commercial or civic, GIS implementation starts with a consult from a GIS technician or engineer. GIS consulting services break down the process for leadership so that no one is in the dark about how GIS works.

I recommend:  Idea Geospatial will assign techs and engineers to help you navigate the very new world of GIS in ways you can understand.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
  • Schedule initial consults for the widest possible audience. When it comes to GIS implementation, two heads are better than one, and your field staff as well as your leadership will want to know how GIS is implemented, since it will be serving many across your company.
