GEOGRAPHY
Geography, geographia, is a field of science dedicated to the study
of the lands, the features, the inhabitants, and the phenomena of
the Earth. A literal translation would be "to describe or picture
or write about the Earth". The first person to use the word "geography"
was Eratosthenes (276–194 BC).
Four historical traditions in geographical research are spatial analysis
of the natural and the human phenomena (geography as the study of
distribution), area studies (places and regions), study of the human-land
relationship, and research in the Earth sciences.
Nonetheless, modern geography is an all-encompassing discipline that foremost
seeks to understand the Earth and all of its human and natural complexities
not merely where objects are, but how they have changed and come to be.
Geography has been called "the world discipline" and "the bridge between the
human and the physical science". Geography is divided into two main branches:
human geography and physical geography.

GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
SYSTEMS (GIS)
Geographic information systems (GIS), or geographical information system,
is any system that captures, stores, analyzes, manages, and presents data
that are linked to location. In the simplest terms, GIS is the merging of
cartography, statistical analysis, and database technology.
GIS systems are used in cartography, remote sensing, land surveying, utility
management, natural resource management, photogrammetry, geography, urban
planning, emergency management, navigation, and localized search engines.
