Definition(s)

  • Internet GIS refers to the use of the Internet as a means to exchange geospatial data, perform geographic information system (GIS) analysis, and visualize maps. Like many other new research fields, there is no general agreement on the term Internet GIS. Several alternative names have been adopted in the GIS community to represent similar concepts, such as online GIS, distributed geographic information (DGI), and Web-based GIS (or Web GIS).
