What can GIS contain?
A GIS can combine maps with information about land parcels, roads, utilities, buildings, survey points, project assets, environmental features and other location-based records. The useful layers depend on the purpose of the project and the quality of the source data.
How survey and GIS work together
Surveying can provide measured spatial information, while GIS can help organise and present that information alongside other datasets. Coordinate systems, metadata and data quality should be handled consistently so different layers can be used together appropriately.
Typical project uses
GIS may support asset inventories, infrastructure mapping, land or development information, project planning, field-data management and map production. It should not be treated as proof of legal land ownership unless the relevant authoritative records and processes establish that status.
