Geographical Information System

In what has been heralded by the media as one of the largest local government multi-participant Geographic Information System (GIS) projects ever, twenty cities, townships, and quasi-governmental organizations have joined together in West Michigan to make life a bit easier for everyone. This powerful, regionally focused GIS benefits not only the participants, but also the citizens we serve.

An acronym for "Regional Geographic Information System," REGIS provides a common database and suite of applications and interfaces to satisfy the spatial data management needs of all participant member departments. What do we expect as a result? By participating in REGIS and working together as a team, all of us will be able to share valuable information, provide better and more consistent service to our constituents, and reduce our operating costs.

"...the Regional Geographic Information System project in Kent County, Michigan, has linked more than 20 cities, townships and government organizations to achieve one of the largest, most comprehensive enterprise GIS implementations ever undertaken." -- Akhlaque Haque, Ph.D., Geospatial Solutions.
