As Dahlman et al (2015) said it studies the interaction of all physical and human phenomena at specific places, how these places interact, and form patterns and construct space. Contemporary geographers use three analytical methods to collect and analyze geographic information namely: area analysis, spatial analysis and geographic systems analysis. Geographic systems analysis (GIS) is an analytical method used by geographers to emphasize the understanding of physical and human systems and the different types of interactions among them.

Models of these systems are used in the processes of helping geographers to see how interrelated factors are and how one force or event affects other events or forces. Geographers use GIS as tools to create interactive queries, analyze geographic information, edit the data retrieved from maps and show the results of all these operations.
