GIS | GIS(Geographic Information System) – a system to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present spatial or
geographic data | GIScience – academic theory behind development, use, application of geographic information system | First
Law of Geography – everything is related to everything else but near things are more related than distant things (spatial
location) | 5 Compents of GIS – 1. People: you 2. Methods & Procedures 3.m Data: surveying, photogrammetry, laser scanning,
remote sensing 4. Hardware: pc, workstation, smart phone, tablet 5. Software: arc GIS | Word Processor – write document &
deal w/ words on computer | GIS Application/Software – deals w/ spatial info on computer | Geospatial Data – geographic
space so data from di erent sources can be cross-referenced & represented of geographic scale such that the data can be
generalized or symbolized | Basic Element of GIS Data – Location: (x,y) – coordinates or locational reference; z – height or
elevation – Attribute Data: describes the demonstration of location (name, size, owner) | GIS Data Models – 3 ways of
representing geospatial data: 1.Vector: discrete point, lines, polygons, reality is divided to objects defined by their boundaries
(shape+size not regular); 2.Raster: depicts real world by grid of cells w/ spectral or attributes values, embedded space is
divided to cells of regular shape+size; 3.Surface: depict real world by set of points or continuous lines of great values | Vector
Model – Point: a pair of x+y coordinates -Line: a sequence of points – Polygon: a closed set of lines | Raster Data Model – raster
data is based on space tessellation; one grid is one unit(pixel), geographic location is embedded in cells location | TIN
(Triangulated Irregular Network) Model – connect closet points, space divided to triangles, edges only intersect at the original
sample points; input/given: regular or irregular distributed points with obs; output: a network of triangles formed under certain
values; use: represent a surface, terrain; good properties: resolutions of data sets, higher at dense sampling regions | Data

file | GeoJSON – open standard format designed for representing vector data, based on Java Script Object Notation | AutoCAD
– contour elevation plots in AutoCad DXF format | Digital Line Graph(DLG) – USGS(united state geological survey) format for
vector data | Spatialite – spatial extension to SQLite database engine | TIGER – topologically integrated geographic encoding
