The Tug Hill Commission has been a leader in the North Country in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) since obtaining its first system in the early 1990s. Over the years the commission has made a point of staying current with hardware and software, enabling us to provide mapping and data analysis support for our projects and to our communities. GIS services are an integral part of the commission’s program and support all three of the program areas (natural resources, planning, and community development). The commission’s GIS strives to keep GIS software, hardware, and data current and maintained; promote and maintain working relationships with other GIS professionals and communities interested in pursuing GIS; and provide ample opportunities for staff development and training for all those using GIS.
