Geographic Information System
Welcome to the Bitterroot National Forest GIS Data
Dictionary. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a computer-based
tool for mapping and analyzing objects and events. It combines the
power of a database with the visualization capabilities offered
by maps. GIS provides the power to solve complicated problems, experiment
with scenarios and present ideas. For more information contact our
Forest GIS Coordinator at (406) 363-7168.
