Department Overview

The Sheridan County IT/GIS Department is a multifunctional department. The department is primarily responsible for upgrading, designing, and maintaining the entire county's computer and networking infrastructure and other technology. It also manages and collects the county's vast supply of spatial data for it's Geographic Information System.

What is G.I.S.?

A Geographic Information System (GIS) is an automated system for creating, editing, managing, analyzing and displaying spatially referenced data. With a GIS, you can link information to location data (such as people to addresses, buildings to parcels, or streets within a network) and develop a better understanding of their relationships to each other. Geographic Information Systems are utilized in many fields and business; from archaeology to banking, finance, forestry, real estate, health, human service, and transportation. GIS is just one component in the ever-growing, rapidly-advancing field of geospatial technologies, and serves as a framework for understanding our world and applying geographic knowledge to solve problems and guide human behavior.
