Abstract
GIS (geographical informationsystems) is computer-based informationsystems
with functions for input, processing, storage, analysis and presentation of geographical data. This means that data after processing and ystematisation gives information that may be presented as maps, tables and statistics, which can provide basic data for analysis and decisions. This report describes a theoretical background as to construction and function of GIS. The report also contains an evaluation of existing use of GIS in rescue services. The evaluation is performed with a view to describe in what way GIS may be used and to give knowledge of what is required if implementation of such a system is to be done.
