The GIS module allows you to manipulate ESRI type GIS data, such as shapefiles. If you have a license of ArcView 8.x or higher on the computer that GMS is installed on, there are additional features available in the GIS module, but you don't have to have an ArcView 8.x license installed to access the basic features.

The following table shows what features are available with and without a license of ArcView 8.x.
