GIS data is spatial and non-spatial data that represents geographic features, like locations, shapes, and features of natural or man-made objects on the earth’s surface. This data can be in the form of maps, satellite images, coordinates, and tables that store information like population statistics of an area, land use, or environmental data. Skylan uses GIS data as the basis for analysis, mapping, and decision-making in various sectors.
