Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
What Is GIS? Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based tool used to map and analyze data in ways that is not possible by simply reading a report or examining a spreadsheet. Nearly
all-county government information has a geographic component to it. GIS consolidates and integrates all of this information so that it can be managed more effectively and efficiently.
We implement innovative location based technology solutions that grow
and enhance the GIS and E-Services capabilities of our organization.
Services include technology planning, software development, data analysis and management.
Alachua County GIS CenterPoint Website
The Alachua County GIS CenterPoint HUB website was created to give users better access to GIS information for the County. This is done by providing interactive Web Map applications that contain a main source of data (i.e. Commissioner Boundaries) to help the end user get the information much faster and concentrates on one main source of information instead of multiple layers. In addition to Web Maps there are Story maps, dashboards, a data portal, and PDF maps that enables users to get more access to different GIS information types from around the County.

The information and data conveyed in GIS maps and apps should be accessible to everyone. Implementing digital accessibility in GIS and mapping helps reduce barriers for people with disabilities and ensures the widespread availability of information. However, digital accessibility in GIS and mapping can pose several challenges due to the inherently visual nature of the data. If you have a disability and need an accommodation in order to understand the content on a map we provide, please contact the Equal Opportunity Office at 352-374-5275. All information, including e-mail, written letters, documents, online request and phone messages, sent to the Alachua County Board of County Commissioners is subject to Public Records law.
