Editor's Notes
- GIS is about data relating to actvities on the earth of all types, such as incidents along a rail network, static or moving objects such as maintenance vehicles or weather. GIS is fundamental to fusing all this diverse info together to help see patterns and make decisions.
- Geographice Information is included today in decision Models. By performing GIS analysis, more accurate decisions can be made
- Need information tools to make the right decisions. GIS helps provide simple access to very complex information. Seeing is not just in the form of a map – it’s the patterns of phenomena that is important. GIS helps to find patterns to predict behavior or outcomes.
- GeoPost is a data base which contains all the address coordinates in Switzerland. Through GeoPost, it is possible to geocode any address in Switzerland with a precision in the range of 5m or more. GeoPost is used in many commercial data products such as Tele Atlas’ Multinet dataset for navigation solutions and other applications of street map data.
