ELA Group has expanded
our GIS capabilities with the addition of Patrick Moulds to
our Municipal Engineering Group as Director: GIS & Chief Information Officer. We asked Patrick, "What exactly is GIS?"
He responded with a pretty clear definition:

analyze and display geographically referenced information.
