THE DETAILS
A geographic information system (GIS) is a system of computer hardware, software, and geographic data, that is utilized to create and edit data, as well as analyze data spatially and geographically. The results are generally presented as maps, either paper or digital. GIS technology can be applied to almost any area of study, including topics of historical interest. Curtis Copeland, President of the Society of Ozarkian Hillcrofters, will discuss a few examples of using GIS technology in the following categories:
GIS for historical Ozarks navigation
GIS for historical investigations and solutions
GIS to identify historical patterns
GIS for historical storytelling
