Drawing University of Kirkuk Map Using (GIS)
Keywords:
Map, Information, System, Geographic, UniversityAbstract
A geographic information system (GIS) is a computerized system of capture, storage, verification and representation of data relating to places on the surface of the earth. A GIS will be able to combine numerous forms of information on one map such as the streets, buildings, and vegetation. This incorporation enables users to understand, analyze, as well as visualizing the spatial patterns and associations effectively. In addition, GIS is able to absorb any dataset that has locational attributes. Location can be given in various forms like latitude and longitude, postal addresses or ZIP codes .And because problem of this research is that the University of Kirkuk does not have a digital map, so by using the ArcGIS program, we will draw a digital map for kirkuk University Work method in brief was where we collected all the required information about ArcGISProgram aw we got (Arial image of kirkuk university ,AutoCad map of kirkuk university) and georeferencing them and drawing points, polygons and line.
