might call “small-scale” information,
information primarily related to issues of land management
and the environment. In the early days, there were
many competing acronyms for what is now known as GIS, such
as Land Information Systems (LIS), and Facility Information
or Facility Management Systems (FMS). As people began
to realize that all of these different concepts were based
on a common set of underlying capabilities (e.g. the ability
to represent, manage, and visualize 2D geometry), these
other terms came to describe various types of GIS
applications, a situation which continues today.</span></p>
