Geographic information systems (GIS) have long supported government infrastructure, land use and emergency response, but legacy, on-premises systems are struggling to meet today’s data demands. This paper explains why state and local agencies are moving GIS to the cloud and what that unlocks: greater scalability, uptime, and the ability to run advanced analytics and AI. Real-world examples — from Atlanta’s airport to the town of Yountville, California — show how organizations of all sizes are modernizing geospatial tools without starting from scratch. You’ll also learn how cloud-based GIS can reduce infrastructure costs, strengthen security and improve service delivery for constituents. Don’t get stuck with outdated tech — download the paper and see how agencies like yours are mapping a smarter path forward.
