LIS Land Information Systems; a GIS for land resources management and an acronym given to some early GIS's.
I support this argument theoretically by turning to the literatures on collaborative planning and spatial decision support, and empirically in my analysis of a case study of an effort to construct a GIS for supporting collaborative water resource management in rural Idaho.
He said he wants to refine GeoCanvas and its carefully curated set of tools that eliminates much of the complexity inherent in traditional GIS systems for a final streamlined, intuitive user interface.
Therefore, an integrated approach, including studies of lithology, hydrogeomorphology, and lineament, has been taken up, using remote sensing and GIS techniques, for a proper assessment of groundwater potential zones in the study area (Nag 2008).
The ability to use a GIS for geospatial analysis on Cloud Computing and High Performance Computing HPCclustersers has emerged as a new approach to provide feasible solutions.
This study incorporates the use of a multi-criteria mechanism in a GIS for the evaluation of the suitability of ecologically sensitive areas for four possible land-uses: nature reserves; forest plantations; residential areas; and industrial areas.

The annual population density variables were calculated in a GIS for various buffer distances (1 km to 50 km's) around each NAPS monitor.
A GIS for the area studied was generated using the georeferenced meteostations previously indicated, the former Soviet Union regional administrative boundaries (oblasts and republics), and the model output databases.
The number of planned visits on each route varied from day to day through the week on the day shift, although the number of visits on the evening shift was about the same each day.Use of GIS for driving route analysis gives a picture of geographic accessibility to the home care recipients.
