[D] Capacity to integrate information from many sources.

Choose the most correct answer from the options given below:

Correct option is C

Correct option: (c)
Why all statements are correct:
· (A) Maximizing efficiency of planning and decision-making
· GIS supports spatial analysis and modeling for informed decisions.
· (B) Efficient data distribution and handling
· Enables storage, retrieval, analysis, and visualization of large spatial datasets.
· (C) Elimination of redundant database
· Centralized spatial databases reduce duplication and inconsistency.
· (D) Integration of information from many sources
· GIS integrates maps, satellite data, surveys, and tabular data.
�� Key Points
· GIS = spatial data integration + analysis + decision support.
· Core strengths: efficiency, integration, accuracy, and data management.
