Geographic Information System (GIS) FAQs

What is GIS technology?

Geographic Information System (GIS) technology uses an extensive inventory of data, which is collected using GPS equipment, computer-generated drawings and aerial photos, to find and analyze location-based information. The result are digital/interactive maps and a catalogue of data.

How does the City use GIS technology?

The City is using GIS technology to create a digital blueprint of Spruce Grove by mapping what’s above ground and what’s below. It has been used to generate hundreds of different maps that illustrate, track and help determine how Spruce Grove is growing.

This information is indispensable as City staff work on a variety of projects, from short-term plans to long-term needs. For example, the data helps determine where to build new roads or locate new green spaces. It assists with transit planning, including where future bus routes and stops may be required.
