  1. GIS Software

  2. GIS Software • The evolution of GIS software • Architecture of GIS software • GIS software components • GIS software functions • Types of GIS software • Usage of GIS software GIS Software

  3. The evolution of GIS software • Early days: a collection of computer programs • 1970s – 80s: ‘standard’ user interface based on command lines • Late 1980s: GUI and customisation capability • 1990s: Software modules and customisation • Today: Web service GIS Software

  8. Architecture of GIS software • Project, departmental and enterprise GIS • Project: single database established for the project primarily used by one user • Department: centralised database used by multiple users • Enterprise: distributed database shared by large number of users on the network GIS Software

  28. Usage of GIS software The estimated regular GIS users (sites) in 2005. If Internet GIS users were included, the total usage of GIS software rose to about 10 million, excluding users of GIS products such as maps, charts and reports. Data source: Longley et al., 2005 GIS Software

  29. Summary • GIS software is a fundamental and critical part of any operational GIS. • Today there are many types of GIS software product to choose from. • There are also a number of ways to configure implementations. • The development of GIS software has now a very rapid rate. GIS Software
