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

“Hard times accounted in large part for the fact that the exposition was a financial disappointment in its first year, but Sally Rand and her fan dancers accomplished what applied science had failed to do, and the exposition closed in 1934 with a net profit, which was donated to participating cultural institutions, excluding Sally Rand.”
