A Guide for Preparing, Mapping, and Linking Logistics Data to a Geographic Information System

This guide is an introduction on how to integrate logistics management information systems (LMIS) with geographic information systems (GIS). It covers the value of integrating these two systems, the steps in assessing if it is currently viable to link the systems, how to set the linkage, the processes for using LMIS within a GIS platform, and finally how to sustain the linkage. The aim of this guide is to assist logistics managers, decisionmakers and technical experts in understanding the value of integrating GIS and of the process involved in integrating these two systems.

  • Advantages In this guide, you will learn the value of linking a GIS and a LMIS, and you will learn the steps you need to take when you link the two systems. By taking advantage of visualization (data placed on a map) and spatial analysis (logistics data based on geography) to link the two systems, you will discover new and valuable ways to use data.
