Ever wondered what those fancy “GIS buzz words” actually mean? With enough public contribution to this website wiki.GIS.com, an online GIS encyclopedia, it may be easier than ever to find the answer. I personally believe this is a great idea and will eventually be a huge resource for Geospatial/geography students as well as GIS professionals and the community. I strongly encourage everyone to participate and help make this site more resourceful. Take a look today, spread the word,  and feel free to add it to your GIS Favorites Bookmarks. Wiki.GIS.com
