Abstract

This handbook's purpose is to help municipalities and other governmental bodies in Tennessee develop a plan for purchasing and evaluating a Geographic Information System (GIS). According to a survey by the state's Geographic Information System Working Group in June 1993, only 13 of Tennessee's 341 municipalities use GIS. However, in the same state survey, all of the responding municipalities indicated their use of maps and geographic information was probably frequent enough to warrant automation. The 328 cities in this state without GIS may be potential candidates for evaluating whether such a system is right for their needs.
