"Information is a source of learning. But unless it is organized, processed, and available to the right people in a format for decision making, it is a burden, not a benefit." - William Pollard
Today, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) form an integral part of virtually all local government information management systems. Spatial technology is no longer merely “nice to have”. Councils expect to be able to use mapping systems to support their daily decision making and service provision activities, as well as to add value to the information provided to residents.
