    Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are powerful tools used for mapping and analyzing spatial data. By integrating various types of data, GIS enables users to visualize, question, analyze, and interpret spatial patterns and relationships. This technology is fundamental in a wide range of applications, including urban planning, environmental management, transportation, public health, and more. Planning, whether urban, regional, or environmental, involves making informed decisions about the use and management of land and resources. GIS plays a crucial role in this process by providing planners with the tools to: Visualize Spatial Data, Analyze Relationships and Patterns, Model Scenarios, & Engage with Stakeholders.
