Abstract:
The North Carolina Center for Geographic Information and Analysis, established in 1977, has implemented one of the first fully operational state geographic information systems (GIS) in the United States. This rapidly evolving state GIS is crucial to many of North Carolina’s recent water quality protection initiatives. The center produced maps that will aid in implementing the state’s watershed protection program, and has detailed data layers which can highlight specific issues.
