Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Geographical information systems (GIS) provide spatial data while Global Positioning Systems (GPS) provide location data. When these technologies are combined, they become geospatial technologies that allow for mapping, tracking, and analyzing various spatial phenomena. Dashboards, decision support systems, expert systems, and neural networks may incorporate geospatial data, but they are not necessary components for the formation of geospatial technologies.
