Introduction
Case studies are specific examples of how GIS was used to solve a problem or made information sharing easier in a particular industry. The Library has a collection of books which illustrate a number of case studies. These case studies can also provide you with inspiration for your own GIS projects. This is not the complete list of case studies available, but those listed should help you with ideas.
