A geographic information system (GIS) integrates hardware, software, and data for capturing, managing, analyzing, and displaying all forms of geographically referenced information.

For many government agencies, GIS technology is critical for real-time data management and for modeling and predicting geographic outcomes.  Today’s GIS functions make it easy to visualize data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, globes, reports, and charts.  The information can be quickly understood and easily shared. 

TechTrend has developed GIS capability for government agencies that helps customers incorporate data from outside sources, update and alter data via web portals, and conduct spatial and temporal queries against a database.
