How Can We Use GIS?
• Depends on your research question(s)
• Examples:
• Where do our customers live?• What are our customers’ demographics?• Which high school do most of our minor CPs/NCPs
attend?• We can buy one billboard. Where do we put it?• Do parts of our county have better performance than
others?
• After we define the problem and ask a question:• Find a possible solution• Make a decision
