Welcome to WinGIS

What exactly is a GIS? A GIS (Geographic Information System) is a collection of computer software and hardware, data and analytic methods used to view and manage information about geographic places. A GIS links location to information allowing you to layer information so you will have a better understanding of how it all interrelates.
WinGIS provides a wide range of services to governmental agencies, non-profit and commercial organizations, and the public.
