Commercial aspects of geoinformation technology

Geoinformation Technology, also known as Geoinformatics, is one of the products of Digital Revolution, which has evolved within the past three decades as a marriage between the Geosciences (Geo) and Information Technology (informatics). Various branches of Geosciences such as Geodesy, Surveying, Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Cartography have utilized sensors to capture and measure spatial data which in turn have been computer processed, stored, analyzed, interpreted, and displayed and made available for a wide variety of applications within the context of Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
