| What We Do: |
|
| GIS
(Geographic Information Systems) is a technology that is quickly
being embraced by many levels of government to aid in managing
resources.
GIS allows roads, locations, boundaries,
etc., to be accurately mapped and recorded.
GIS also allows information about each of the mapped items to
be recorded and maintained.
Effingham
County
will be using GIS to create and organize information on tax parcels,
taxing districts, roads, soil types, emergency
response zones, etc. The GIS Department is
dedicated to developing and maintaining
accurate geographic
databases for Effingham County. |
