  Using GIS to View/Analyze China City-Province GeoDemographics
  CommunityViewer GIS Project & Applications


Web-based interactive mapping applications, such as the China Google Maps API sections, provide one way to present location-based information in the context of a map view. There are many advantages including ease of use, almost no learning, computer-platform indepedence, among others. At the same time there are many limitations to the Google Maps API applications including difficulty/inability to add map layers, inability to create effective thematic maps, inability to perform geospatial analysis, limited ability to add/remove/modify labels, among many others.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software offer an extended capability to analyze geodemographics. This section provides access to China city/province geodemographic data in the form of a CommunityViewer GIS project. Download and use the associated no fee, no registration GIS project; view/analyze city locations in context of other geography.
