In my previous posts, I had demonstrated how GIS technology can help organizations to shortlist suitable locations, assess risk, plan logistics and improve operations. There are numerous workflows besides these which mapping technology can perform. In this post, I will highlight some of the major Business Needs fulfilled by GIS.
The concepts are borrowed from, and explained in more detail on Esri, my GIS vendor's website. Section headings are hyperlinked and will redirect you to related content. The Business Needs are sorted in Alphabetical order.
