Geographic Information Systems Geographic information systems (GIS) technology can be used for scientific investigations, resource management, and development planning. For example, a GIS might allow emergency planners to easily calculate emergency response times in the event of a natural disaster, or a GIS might be used to find wetlands that need protection from pollution. USGS node of the National Geospatial Data Clearinghouse - a component of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). Manual of Federal Geographic Data Products What is a GIS? In the strictest sense, a GIS is a computer system capable of assembling, storing, manipulating, and displaying geographically referenced information, i.e. data identified according to their locations. Practitioners also regard the total GIS as including operating personnel and the data that go into the system. How does a GIS work? Relating information from different sources Data capture Data integration Projection and registration ... Data modeling What's special about a GIS? The way maps and other data have been stored or filed as layers of information in a GIS makes it possible to perform complex analyses.

GIS In Conservation And Management Short articles about current and recent projects using geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial analysis in conservation and management of species and landscapes. Projects involve habitat modeling and linking landscape data to population viability analyses. http://www.ramas.com/consgis.htm

Using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in Conservation and Management Applied Biomathematics has several current and recent projects related to the use of geographic information systems (GIS) in conservation and management of species and landscapes. These research projects involve GIS-based habitat modeling, and link landscape data to population viability analyses. If you are not familiar with these concepts, you can read short introductory material in the following pages: Population viability analysis and risk assessment Modeling populations and species Metapopulation models and GIS Articles on linking GIS to ecological models GIS Enhances Endangered Species Conservation Efforts . Originally published in GIS World in November 1994. Linking GIS with Models of Ecological Risk Assessment for Endangered Species . Presented at the Third International Conference on Integrating GIS and Environmental Modeling, at Santa Fe, New Mexico. Software for linking GIS to ecological models RAMAS GIS is a program designed to link your GIS with an ecologcial model for population viability analysis and extinction risk assessment. RAMAS GIS is used to import and analyze GIS maps, and to build metapopulation models based on the characteristics of the landscape and the habitat requirements of the species living in them.

Spatial Data Welcome to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service GIS (Geographic Information Systems) Home Page. This page is maintained by the National Data Administration Office of Information Resources Management, located in Lakewood, Colorado. We are expanding our involvement in GIS activities in the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), with an emphasis on the spatial data aspects of GIS These include coordinating Metadata efforts in FWS, assisting offices by locating free or low cost spatial data, providing general evaluations on the quality of that data, providing a platform for sharing Metadata and spatial data, and serving as a clearinghouse for other GIS topics such as data standards, training, the A-16 process, global positioning systems, contract information, and technical notes. Deb Southworth Green maintains this information and serves as a central contact point for spatial data issues within FWS. She works closely with the Regional GIS Coordinators and members of the GIS Steering Committee on coordination issues, and referring local GIS questions back to them. She can be contacted via the e-mail address at the bottom of the page, or at 303/274-3574. GIS SPATIAL DATA TOPICS USFWS GIS search tips, tricks and hints!
