Geodata – in principle this is all the data that indicates an area reference i.e. a coordinate. A lot of factual data only begins to gain meaning in relation to its spatial reference. Only then can it be used for analyses and form part of qualified decisions.
Geoinformation is based on the analysis and interpretation of geodata. It is always based on geographical information systems (GIS). This refers to computer-supported instruments for recording, managing, analysing and presenting spatial data. By linking factual data with spatial and graphical attributes “intelligent” spatial data is created. If technical information is organised and archived in a GIS, the data sets can be processed, edited and represented as required in a theme-related manner.
