Abstract

GIS has a potential role in both theoretical and applied aspects of ecology. The use of GIS has accurately opened up whole new areas of ecological research and analysis. It is now possible to study and manage natural resources on a regional level, taking account of processes that were very difficult to study in small geographic areas. Digital map layers are also straightforward to query and can be used not only to ask where something is, but to speculate about why it might be there and not elsewhere. GIS can therefore be very helpful as a tool in conceptualizing problems or hypotheses in ecology.
