The BRADD has been developing a regional Geographic Information System (GIS) for about 8 years. A GIS is defined as a computer-based system for the storage, management, analysis and display of geographic data and related information which allows a wide variety of data to be integrated and combined based on spatial relationships. This powerful tool can be used in applications such as long term plans and decision-making processes.
Our primary goal is to build and maintain an extensive, reliable and useful geographic database for the BRADD area in digital format. Information on digital data files will be made available via Internet to any federal, state, district offices, regional planning councils, local governments, universities and other public or private organizations interested in acquiring GIS data.
