<b><span style='font-family:"FreeSans","serif"'>The centre of GIS & Remote
Sensing of the University of Girona put “The Power of Geographic Information”
within everybody’s reach</span></b><br>
<br>
<span style='font-family:"FreeSans","serif"'>The centre of GIS and Remote
Sensing Centre –SIGTE– of the University of Girona (Spain) develops a video
called The Power of Geographic Information with the aim of spreading the
Geographic Information Technologies to society with an everyday perspective. The
video is an European pioneering initiative and a project with international
scope.</span><br>
<span style='font-family:"FreeSans","serif"'><br>
We are spatial beings, our space references are part of our everyday lives,
because of everything that happens, happens somewhere. Geographic Information
is part of the explanation and solutions of many humanity problems and this
information make find answers possible to problems in many different areas:
particulars and everyday issues, governmental and business issues.<br>
<br>
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) along with other related technologies
comprise what is being called geoITC and these technologies open the way to the
GeoAll era, where knowing the location of everything that happens in the world
becomes a social necessity, and also strategic one.</span><br>
<span style='font-family:"FreeSans","serif"'><br>
In this context arises SIGTE audiovisual project and the result is a dynamic
and clear report which shows the everyday applications and advantages of
Geographic Information and related technologies, highlighting the strategic
role of the spatial information and its constant presence in our daily lives.</span><br>
<span style='font-family:"FreeSans","serif"'><br>
The Project, led by SIGTE of the University of Girona, has enjoyed the
cooperation of different institutions and companies linked to the world of GIS.</span><br>
<span style='font-family:"FreeSans","serif"'><br>
