• Procurement of Satellite Imagery preferably of 0.61 m or 1 m resolution. The latest the vintage of the imagery the better.(1 m res means that a 1 sq. m area on planet earth appears as 1 pixel in the image). Some GIS users may want to use aerial Photography.
• Most Satellite imagery is already georeferenced when purchased, if its not or if the geometric accuracy is low, it is refined by georeferencing via GPS control points.
• The satellite imagery is digitized (converted to vector). Points, Lines and Polygons are used to represent locations, roads, and land parcels respectively using Autodesk Map 3D 2005.
• All available information about these locations, roads, and land parcels (if available) is either annotated on the vector map or attached from database to the vector map as attribute data.
• The product thus developed is called a Digital or Vector Base Map. This is the essence for a GIS. The quality of a GIS is determined by the accuracy of the Base Map.
• Customer layers of interest; e.g. electricity cable network, water pipeline network, transportation routes etc depending on the GIS being developed are superimposed on the Base Map. This is the most critical phase in the entire process of GIS development. The client provided information from their schematics must overlay on the Base Map accurately. (In many of such cases, an expensive field survey is required often utilizing GPS technology or even otherwise. Use of GPS can be avoided at this stage by using print out/s of satellite imagery while doing survey.)
• Once the customer schematics are properly overlayed, the customer data is connected to these layers as attribute data. 
• Queries are now generated based on the requirement (purpose) of the intended GIS.
• This Conventional GIS is ready to be implemented using Autodesk Map 3D 2005.
• In case an Intranet or Web (Internet) based GIS is required, the above system hitherto called Back-end GIS is web enabled using Autodesk Mapguide Author. Any industry GIS can be Web enabled be it in Autodesk Map, ESRI ArcInfo, or MapInfo etc using Autodesk Mapguide.
• Once Intranet/Internet enabled, the GIS is hosted on a Company Server (Intranet) or a Web Server (Internet).
• Intranet based GIS is company confidential and offers quick reporting and thematic information to company managers for prompt decision making.
• Internet based GIS is viewed by public and serves to provide geographic information to general public the world over. Many city governments across the world use this facility to host their geographical websites.
• Professional solutions such as Vehicle Tracking, Fleet Tracking, Match Ticket sales etc. are implemented using similar systems.
• The GIS can be viewed on a Palm top computer within a GSM network's domain if required, using Autodesk Onsite Enterprise software. Outside of GSM Network, Radio Modems are required.
