I work as GIS consultant at Geo-IT. Don't you know what GIS is? GIS is a Geographic Information System and we work in the support department for local governments. Do you want to know more about GIS, take a look at Wikipedia.

Obviously I'm also interested in GIS outside the job situation, therefore I put some GIS and map related projects on the internet:

On the internet you can find lots of interesting information about GIS. Here are some of my favourites:


  
    - Digitaal Vlaanderen: The Geospatial Service of the Flemish Government
  
    - OpenStreetMap: A crowdsourced map of the world. A kind of Wikipedia for maps.
  
    - QGIS: Great open-source (aka: free) GIS software. Just try it!
  
    - OSGeo: An organisation that makes open-source GIS and mapping software (QGIS, ...).
