Transportation is inherently a geospatial activity, involving the movement of people or goodsfrom one geographic location to another. Therefore, much of the data needed to support transportation planning, operations, and policy decisions include geo-information as a key attribute. Transportation practitioners have embraced GIS as an important tool in managing, planning, evaluating, and maintaining transportation systems.

The analytical power of GIS can deliver significant benefits to transportation-related operations and applications in the following areas:

• Transportation Infrastructure & Network Mapping: Roads, Waterways, Ferry Routes, Flight Paths, Rail Tracks, etc.
• Automated Location and GPS Tracking Systems
• Route Optimisation & Logistics Planning
• Accessibility Analysis: Pedestrian / Cycling
• Port and Maritime Facilities Management
• Satellite Navigation Systems
• Infrastructure Capacity Modelling and Planning
