مقدمة عن كتاب ArcGIS Environment and Water Issues 

GIS is an information technology system that stores all the digital data in one location, retrieving and analyzing the data quickly and efficiently in a color coded map format. The map creation depends on database and information. Users can use various types of databases to create different layers in one display. This will add an advantage to the data analysis by providing the spatial relationship between layers and will reveal any hidden relationship that the user can use for facilitating the analysis and strengthen the finding. For example, soil layers can be viewed with elevation layers and water table depth of an aquifer, in order to select the best location for building a landfill. 

In previous years, all maps were created manually. A cartographer would use simple tools and paper to draw a map this work was tedious and time consuming and if an error took place, the cartographers had to repeat all of their work and start over. This map was static in a way that any new development couldn’t be added. With the advancement in technology, a GIS map is more dynamic, can be modified in very little time, and can be stored, displayed, and printed out quickly and efficiently. GIS is a new methodology in science and applications, it is a new profession and a new business. GIS refers to three integrated parts. 

1. Geographic: The geographical location of the real world (coordinate system) 
2. Information: The database 
3. Systems: The hardware and software 

A GIS performs six fundamental operations that make it a useful tool for finding solutions to real-world problems. Throughout this course, you will gain experience with the ArcGIS tools used for these operations. 

1. Capture data: You can add data from many sources to a GIS, and you can also create your own data from scratch. You will learn about getting data into a GIS in Chap. 4. 
2. Store data: You can store and manage information about the real world in ways that makes sense for your application. You will learn about organizing data in Chap. 3, 4, and 7. 
3. Query data: You can ask complex questions about features based on their attributes or their location and get quick results you will gain experience with querying in Chap. 7, 8, 12, and 16. 
4. Analyze data: You can integrate multiple datasets to find features that meet specific criteria and create information useful for problem solving. You will perform analysis in Chap. 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18. 
5. Display data You can display features based on their attributes, a powerful feature you’ll come to appreciate. You will learn how to symbolize features in different ways in Chap. 2 and 3. 
6. Present data: You can create and distribute high-quality maps, graphs, and reports to present your analysis results in a compelling way to your audience. You will learn how to design an effective map in Chap. 3.GIS is a 

computerized system that deals with spatial data in terms of the following:

1. Storage: Digital and database storage. 
2. Management of Data: Integration of the database into the GIS system. 
3. Retrieval: The capacity to view the various database data formats. 
4. Conversion: Convert different sets of data from one form to another. 
5. Analysis: Manipulating data to produce new information.
6. Modeling: Simplifying the data and its process. 
7. Display: Presenting the output works.
