G.I.S

▪ A geographic information system is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyse, manage, and present all types of spatial or geographical data. ▪ Lets us visualize, question,

analyze, and interpret data to understand relationships, patterns, and trends.

Four sets capabilities

▪ Data capture and preparation

▪ Data management including storage and maintenance

▪ Data Manipulation and analysis

▪ Data presentation

Benefits and drawbacks

Some Benefits

▪ Storage of large volumes of geographical data at a low cost.

▪ Speed and effi ciency in decision making.

▪ Interactive spatial selection process and many others…

▪Lack of specialized personnel and competent implementation

of a GIS project

▪High cost and technical problems during data acquisition.

▪Cost of software maintenance of the product and the lack of

flexibility in programming.

Some Drawbaks

Some limitations…

Some limitations are to be underlined when handling some complex and hard analysis of tasks to provide the best decision

Some limitation..

▪ Generation of efficient solutions for loading and routing problems.

▪ Finding ways and channels of lower costs in complex networks.

▪ Capacity optimization of antennas in telecommunication networks.

▪ Fragmentation and packaging of data in networks.

GIS does not provide satisfactory solutions

Becomes unable to meet the high expectations of the fast growing of GIS community

Some limitation..

Gis Developers are faced with new challenges

An integration constitutes a promising solution that makes easier and more efficient the resolution of complex real world problems.

Integration ?

The process of bringing and linking together some components into a master system and making sure

that they behave as a coordinate whole

Gis Integration with …

ERP system s: like SAPSocial Media

Optimization toolsOperation research algorithms:Dijekstra, Tabu , A*

GIS have been integrated with numerous tools as optimizationroutines, statistical procedures, or visualization programs.

Optimization tools and gis integration

GIS and optimization tools Profitables alternatives

Some situations require not only a simple exploration among data, but also the generation of the best solution through optimization routines

Optimization tools and gis integration

Data are transferred to optimization tools.

Optimization tools modeling the problem

and computing its complexity.

How to perform such Integration ?

Integration Strategies

Full GIS-O integration

strategy

Loose GIS-O integration

strategy

Tight GIS-O integration

strategy

Three Main Integration Strategies

Full GIS-O integration strategy

Optimization routines are developed within the GIS environment

GIS routines are embedded into the optimization tools.

Gis SoftwareOptimization

Routines

Optimization Software

Gis Routines

Tight GIS-O integration strategy

The integration of the optimization tools and GIS can be

seen as a hybridizing of the two previous approaches.

The loose coupling strategy

The GIS serves as a pre-processor and a post-processor to

the optimization system.

So In Summary…

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are becomingextremely important in various decision making processes.They provide an opportunity to make educated and profitabledecisions.

The most important and common challenge :

▪ Data acquisition since it is often hard and expensive to collect
