- 10. Estimates are that 80% of all data has a spatial component • Cellular Phone location • ID cards • Telephone Directories • Registration • Your favorite restaurant, park , shopping mall address. Muhammad Haris 10 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 11. GIS stands for Geographical Information System The “bookish” definition: GIS is a system for capturing, storing, analyzing, managing data that is associated to the earth w.r.t location Muhammad Haris 11 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 12. Very Important !! Very Important Spatial = Geographical = Locational Muhammad Haris 12 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 13. 2nd Definition of GIS (Intermediate Level) GIS = Spatial + Attribute A GIS links locational/spatial and attribute(non- locational) information and enables a person to visualize patterns, relationships, and trends easily and efficiently Helps identify patterns not easily visible on paper map. Muhammad Haris 13 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 14. GIS – Finding Patterns To explore highway accidents, we might first make a map of where each accident occurred. We might use one color to locate those accidents that occur at night and a second color for those that occur during the day, and then we might see a more complex pattern.

- 48. Where GIS is being used Muhammad Haris 48 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 49. Raster Data’s Resolution 1. Spatial resolution 2. Spectral resolution 3. Radiometric resolution Muhammad Haris 49 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 50. Spatial Resolution The term resolution is the pixel count in digital imaging Higher the number of pixels, higher is the spatial resolution. • Spatial Resolution is the size of areas represented by each pixel in a digital photo • Google Earth Images has a spatial resolution of 1 meter per pixel Muhammad Haris 50 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 51. Spectral Resolution It is the range of wavelengths that an imaging system (satellite)can detect Higher the wavelength range, higher is the spectral resolution . Spectral resolution can also be defined as the number of frequency bands recorded. Higher the number of Bands Higher the spectral resolution Muhammad Haris 51 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 52. Radiometric Resolution Radiometric resolution determines how finely a system can represent intensity, and is usually expressed as a number of levels or number of bits. Important: For example a Raster Data that use 16 bits to store intensity for a single pixel has more level of intensity than a raster data that uses 8 bits Muhammad Haris 52 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 53. GIS Softwares Muhammad Haris 53 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT
- 54. GIS Softwares • MapGuide, GeoTools, uDig, MapServer • ESRI leads in the GIS field • Pioneers in GIS, • The 5 Largest Privately Held Software Company in the World • Extensive range of GIS software and Research material • Their flagship product ArcGIS leads in the GIS software domain Muhammad Haris 54 Lecturer GIS Center PUCIT

- Geographic information systems (GIS) allow us to conduct spatial analysis faster, better, and cheaper now than in Dr. Snow’s day. He only had to compare two competing theories. What if he wanted to analyze all aspects of the victims’ lives. How close did they live to various factories? Where did they get their meats, fruits and vegetables, or breads? Where did they go to school, work, or church? What were their mattresses made of? How many people lived in their homes? What kind of wood did they burn for fires? What kind of oil did they use in their lamps? What materials were their clothes made out of? The list of possible questions is endless. Answering all those questions and determining if they were at all related to the cholera outbreak in a timely manner would have been an impossible task for Dr. Snow. With GIS we can.
- There are two ways that the layers can be visualized on a map; as a vector or raster layer Raster layers are organized in a grid of identically sized cells. The top image is an example of a raster layer. The cells have a uniform length and width (square shaped) and are called “pixels.” Each cell has its own individual attribute data. Satellite images and aerial photos are types of raster layers where each cell displays what light wavelength is emitted or reflected from that location. The cells in a pure black and white photo represent whether light does emit or reflect from a cell’s location (white) or does not emit or reflect from the location (black). Examples of raster layers include temperature, elevation, and satellite imagery. Vector layers are represented as points, lines, or polygons. A vector layer cannot mix types together. One layer cannot have both points and polygons. The layer would have to be split into two separate layers; one for points and one for polygons. The bottom image is an example of at least three separate vector layers forming one image. Vector data is used when the features have specific locations and boundaries and the attribute data is uniform throughout the individual features. Examples of vector layers include bus stops (point), roads (line), and counties (polygon).
- This slide shows five distinct, but related, data layers. The Capital layers is an example of a point vector layer. The Roads and Rivers layers are examples of line vector layers. The Lakes and States layers are examples of polygon vector layers.
- When the five data layers from the previous slide are loaded into a digital map they combine into this one image. Each layer is still separate and can be turned on and off individually. The legend on the left side of the image shows the order of the images. The States layer is at the bottom of the image while the US Capitals layer is at the top. The layer order determines how the map draws the image with the top layers being drawn on top of the layers below it. If the States layer was moved to the top of the order it would cover the other layers and nothing else would be visible (except for the Great Lakes features of the Lakes layer) because it is being drawn on top of the other layers.
