Geoinformation systems (also GIS - geographical information system) - systems designed to collect, store, analyze and graphically visualize spatial data and related information about objects represented in GIS. In other words, these are tools that allow users to search, analyze, and edit digital maps, as well as additional information about objects, such as building height, address, and number of residents. In 2012, the geographic information services market in Russia maintained growth dynamics, increasing by 20%. The same indicator was observed in 2011; then in monetary terms, the volume of the domestic geoinformatics market amounted to 1.2 billion US dollars. In 2012, this figure reached $1.5 billion; of these, about 15% are the development, implementation and maintenance of information systems (including corporate GIS), 40% are the satellite navigation sector, another 25% is the segment related to the collection, processing and generation of spatial data. The remaining 20 per cent includes geodetic/mapping services and specialized equipment.
