GIS stands for geographic information system. A GIS is a computer system for capturing, storing, analyzing and displaying spatial or geographic data. It allows users to view multiple layers of information simultaneously and analyze the relationships between different data points. Some key applications of GIS include land management, infrastructure planning, environmental analysis, and military operations. GIS was first developed in the 1960s in North America and has since been used widely in Malaysia and other countries for applications like cadastral mapping, agriculture, forestry, and urban planning.

GIS may include manual systems, however, it usually refers to a computerised database system for capture, storage, retrieval, analysis and display of spatial data (Huxhold, 1991).
GIS is capable of assisting the storage, retrieval and manipulation of spatially referenced data such as street address or a census tract (Nedovic-Budic, 1999).
GIS is most useful when used to perform data analysis (Lee and Wong, 2001, viii) GIS SOME DEFINITIONS (cont.) application acts as a problem solving solution example: water pollution, traffic, land management toolbox emphasize on the generic aspect of GIS in its definition always used by vendors to maximize their market share The History First developed in North America, particularly the U.S. and Canada in the mid- 1960s Previously been used in natural resources and environmental research

A single map lets your customer compare multiple properties and their respective proximity to desired amenities such as schools, parks, and shopping centers. Introduce the subject of disclosure by displaying FEMA floodplain data and know toxic sites in an area.
Commercial Real Estate
Evaluate and analyze key factors when siting new premise for restaurants, stores, warehouses, corporate offices etc.: * Proximity to suitable customers * Location of potential competitors * Crime rates * Transportation infrastructure * Regional labor pool characteristics * Environmental risk factors (i.e., flood plains, toxic sites, and others) Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) can gain a competitive edge over traditional investments by using GIS to quantifying the investment potential of portfolios. GIS can show properties in the context of potential customers/tenants, nearness to competitors, inventories of like property, labor pools, and risk factors. Multiple Listing Services Multiple Listing Services (MLSs) can add features and functions to the standard MLS menu of services such as an interactive map to show qualifying properties in the context of neighborhood amenities or perceived nuisances. Layers such as toxic sites can be added to address the sometimes thorny issue of disclosure. A prospective buyer can browse listings, look at an appropriate map, and choose an agent without ever leaving home. A good Internet site can link visitors to agents' e-mails and office Web sites. Mapping at the local level. Data such as parcel maps, school district boundaries, bus routes, local parks, and recreation facilities can be used by local MLS providers. Internet Map Server (IMS) technology gives us the tools to publish maps on the internet.
Title Companies
Title companies can use GIS for relatively simple customer care mapping services, preliminary title searches, and the creation of GIS-based land information systems (LISs). LIS projects can involve the conversion of an existing paper-based land registration/taxation system to an automated interactive GIS system. Projects also include the creation of GIS/LIS from historical records and aerial photogrammetry. The title industry can also take advantage of internet-enabled GIS systems to allow free public access to a county's parcel ownership data and maps with a gateway to a fee-for-service section. In the fee-for-service section, customers can order/down proprietary data and reports and initiate title searches. More innovative applications can be linked to a local real estate board or MLS provider and are of particular value to a wide range of real estate professionals. Appraisers
Map current and recently retired listings for a more accurate representation of sales information for comparison. GIS maps properties based on searchable features such as address and parcel number, so we can review all properties in a given area using these connectors ArcView GIS desktop software gives you the tools to map features that affect a property's value such as crime rates, environmental hazards, and the condition of surrounding neighborhoods and properties.
