Tasks Accomplished With GIS Software
Typical tasks carried out with GIS are:
- viewing / exploring data
- creating data (the dataset is extended)
- editing data (the dataset is modified)
- storing
- conflation (integrating datasets from different sources)
- transforming (into different coordinates systems, different representations, re-sampling - resulting in new representation/format of the same data)
- querying (resulting in a selection from the dataset)
- analysing (resulting in a new dataset, with new information obtained from the original dataset)
- create maps

Famous quotes containing the words tasks and/or accomplished:
“Everything I do is done within sight of the Führer, so that my faults or mistakes are never hidden from him. I do my very utmost to live and act in such a manner that the Führer should remain satisfied with me; I am hard-working; but whether I shall always be able to cope with the tasks entrusted to me in the future as well, is an open question.”
—Martin Bormann (1900–1945)
“Bastidides, on the contrary, who both talks and writes of nothing
save copulation,
Has become the father of twins,
But he accomplished this feat at some cost;
He had to be four times cuckold.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
