1
What is NOT a spatial analysis in GIS
proximity and overlay/extraction
statistical and temporal (time)
all of the previous
statistical and atmospheric
2
How can AI help GIS?
push a button and get whatever I need
automatically georeferencing and classifying Satellite Images
automate tasks, enhance data quality, create new data, change detection
I can't use AI in a GIS

GIS stands for....
Geographic Information System
GPS Information System
Geographic Intelligence System
GIS Information System
5
GIS approach
Ask, Acquire, Examine, Analyze, Act and repeat the loop if necessary
Ask and Act
Ask, Acquire, Examine, Analyze, Act without repeating thethe loop
Ask, Acquire, Examine, Act
6
What is GIS?
A complex system composed of: hardware, software and only geographic data
A complex system composed of: hardware, software, data, experts and rules
Simply e software (i.e QGIS) to manage geographic data
none of the previous
7
In which applications can I use GIS?
Many topics but not Marketing
Only Defense and intelligence applications
Many applications, potentially without any limitation
Geography applications
8

Open data, Raster and Vector data, Tables, Survey data
9
ArcGIS PRO is a GIS leading software
True
False
10
The use of GIS is limited to some specific cartographic scales
No, but I can't use it to create maps
Yes, Icì can use it only to cretìate topographic maps
No
Yes, it can be used only at a Regional scale
11
Advantages to maintain a geometric Topological consistency in my dataset
to check errors in my dataset
to perform quality checks, advanced spatial min path or flow analysis
to perform quality checks, advanced spatial analyses and polygon analysis
to perform quality checks
12
There are several definitions of GIS, the one that perhaps best describes its potential is the following:
a decision-making support tool
a complex system to create complex maps
a tool to manage geographic data
a relational geo-database
13
Which of the following statements makes sense from a topological point of view
they are only polygons, points and lines
It's not a topology, it's a Spatial Analysis tool
nothing makes sense in the image above
lake A is adjacent to forest B and land C, is bordered by regional road b
14
Is the below image correct?
Yes, but It's not usual
No, I can perform Spatial Analysis at the beginning of the workflow
Yes, it's a possible GIS workflow a GIS expert could perfom
No
15
GIS data structuring
Spaghetti Style and Topological Model
Polygon, Point and line
Raster and Vector
Geometrical (or "a Spaghetti" Model) and Topological Model
16
To which type of topological rule does the image belong?
Adjacency
Connection
Intersection
none
17
In Italy GIS is also called...
Sistemi Informativi Territoriali (SIT)
Sistemi Informativi Terreni (SIT)
Software Informativi Territoriali (SIT)
Sistemi di Intelligence Territoriale (SIT)
