Geographic Information Systems are tools that integrate and relate various components (users, hardware, software, processes) that allow the organization, storage, manipulation, analysis and modeling of large amounts of data from the real world, that are linked to a spatial reference, facilitating the incorporation of social-cultural, economic and environmental aspects that lead to more effective decision making..

GIS technology can be used for a wide variety of applications, from scientific research, resource management, asset management, archaeology, environmental impact assessments, urban planning, cartography, sociology, historical geography, marketing, logistics, precision agriculture and animal husbandry, or many other applications.

GIS is currently having a strong implementation in the so-called Location Based Services (LBS) due to the cheapening and massification of GPS technology integrated in mobile consumer devices (cell phones, PDAs, laptops). LBS allow GPS-enabled mobile devices to display their location with respect to fixed points of interest (nearest restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, fire hydrants, etc.), mobile (friends, children, buses, police cars) or to transmit their position to a central server for viewing or other processing.
