    GIS & Data Integration


    GIS Database of The Environmental Information


    GIS Hardware and Software
    The ICC has ArcInfo 7.03 GIS systems on platforms Sun Sparcstation 20, Vaxstation 90 and ArcView 3.1 on PC and PCI image processing system on Silicon Graphics Indy workstations. GIS system includes also Calcomp 9500 digitizer, HP designjet 750c plotter, Calcomp Classic pen plotter, and A4 size scanner. Those systems are used for the Geographic Information Database.

    Current Status of Geographic Information Database
    The lists of GIS database are in Table1 and Table2, examples of existing maps in database are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
