A GIS of soils, paleosols, pedolandscapes, parks, and land uses has been created and investigated to identify pedolandscapes rich in paleosols with high cultural value.
The integration of raster and vector data analyses of a single GIS database can produce a much more comprehensive spatial model than a GIS of either the vector or raster format alone.
We extracted three main classes of ground covers from a GIS of the Soil Occupation Model classification database [22]: artificial urban cover (including 54 habitat classes such as buildings, parking or roads), open urban cover (including 14 habitat classes such as gardens) and rural cover (including 15 habitat classes like forest and crop fields).
The viewshed results were overlaid on a GIS of points (residential coordinates) and the results tabulated.

A GIS analysis of U.S. water resources found the commercial production potential of algae-based fuels to be 25 billion gallons per year -- or one-twelfth of the country's yearly needs for transportation fuels.
Undisturbed grasslands were mapped using a GIS database of land use history combined with manual interpretation of high-resolution aerial photographs.
We defined forest security cover for ungulates as forested areas with a canopy closure above 75% [54] and using a GIS model of canopy closure [55] we calculated the distance of each animal location to forest cover with 75% canopy closure.
A GIS database of six geomorphological and hydrometeorological factors for the evaluation of susceptibility was created.
The main idea of creating an erosion-characteristic database paired with a GIS project of the Phewa watershed was to be able to generate statistics about simple volume estimations of the road side events.
