GIS is a very important computer-based skill for many environmental scientists. GIS allows better viewing and understanding of physical features and the relationships that influence a given critical environmental condition. For instance, factors, such as steepness of slopes, aspects, and vegetation, can be viewed and overlaid to determine various environmental parameters and impact analysis. Those skilled in using GIS offer businesses, organizations and government the ability to spot and address relationships between geographical entities and attributes that would be otherwise invisible.
