It is good and useful to be able to obtain updated and updated information about the planning process, and to determine the dimensions on the map such as length, width and area. In addition to consolidating the relationship between geography and other sciences such as planning and computers, and the possibility of analyzing and processing a large amount of data

One of the important and good applications start in 1. Spatial data 2. Metadata 3. Attribute data Where reducing time and cost through applications such as AutoCAD

By watching the video, learn about GIS A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer system for capturing, storing, checking and displaying data about locations on the Earth's surface. GIS can display many different types of data on a single map, such as streets, buildings, and plants. This allows people to more easily see, analyze, and understand patterns and relationships. Example: Berlin with access to it by car in 30 minutes divided into equal 5 minute . Also known about GDAL(Geodata Abstraction Layer) Supports anumber of formats: GeoTIFF, Erdas imagine, ESRI Imageine, HDF, KML and support most language interfaces: C++, Java, Python.
