GIS stands for Geographical Information System and refers to a computer-based system for storing, analyzing, and displaying maps and map information.

A regular map shows only spatial data such as streets, roads, streams and bridges. In effect a simple picture. A geographic information system (GIS) goes further by linking information about the mapped objects to the mapped objects. For example, addresses and street names can be linked to street segments. This link creates "intelligent" map features and provides the ability to analyze data, letting you use map data in a whole new way.

After you have worked with the map and the data to specify what you want to display, you can print the current map view or copy it into another document. With GIS data and functionality being made available over the Internet, as we are in the process of doing here at the City of Russellville, the system is referred to as a "Web GIS".

The maps are saved in the Design Web Format (dwf). In order to view these maps you must download and install the Autodesk Design Review plug-in. Using this free dwf viewer, you can view the online maps. For those satisfied with less detailed maps, they are also available in PDF format.
