Exploring the Subfields of Geoinformation

Some other thought: “Geoinformation” is the overarching term that encompasses all the fields related to the collection, management, analysis, and dissemination of geographic information. Under “Geoinformation”, we have several subfields: Geographic Information Systems (GIS): A system for capturing, storing, analyzing, and displaying geographically referenced information. GIScience (also known as geospatial science or geoinformatics): The scientific study of the principles and methods used in GIS, including geographic concepts, data structures, algorithms, and software used in GIS, as well as the social and ethical implications of GIS technology. Geomatics: The field of study that deals with the measurement, representation, analysis, and management

An Overview of Geographic Information Systems, GIScience, Geomatics, Geoinformatics, and Geoinformation Technology

Geographic Information System (GIS) is a system for capturing, storing, analyzing, and displaying geographically referenced information. This can include data such as maps, satellite imagery, and demographic information. GIS allows users to create, edit, and analyze spatial data and create visual representations such as maps and 3D models. GIScience (also known as geospatial science or geoinformatics) is the scientific study of the principles and methods used in GIS. It encompasses the study of geographic concepts, data structures, algorithms, and software used in GIS, as well as the social and ethical implications of GIS technology. Geomatics is the field of study

Terms – Geographic(al) Information System, GIScience, Geomatics, Geoinformatics, Geoinformation Technology and Geospatial Technology

Common people, often, get confused with the terms Geographic(al) Information System, GIScience, Geomatics, Geoinformatics, Geoinformation Technology and Geospatial Technology. To understand the differences or similarities among them we need to fine-tune our understanding about these frequently used and interchangeable terms. Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based information system used to digitally represent and analyze the geospatial data or geographic data. The GIS has been called an ‘enabling technology’, because it offers interrelation with the wide variety of disciplines which must deal with geospatial data. Each related field provides some of the techniques which make up a GIS. Many of these related fields emphasize data collection; GIS brings
