摘 要: | In this paper,authors introduce the establishment of a Micro-computer Based Geographic Information System(MCGIS),which is one of the subsystems of The Loess Plateau Geographic Information System (LP-GIS) being carried out by the REIS Laboratory and several universities of China on various types and levels of computer.MCGIS is developed on the micro-computer Gteat Wall-286.Its purpose is to providean information system with powerful perforrmance,which could be afforded by thosecounty-level units or departments,so that the general guide-line of multi-function,multi-level and multi-user can come to practice. The system MCGIS is composed of the spatial database management systems and some software packages for geographic analysis and other further data processing.The spatial database management svstem is the kernel part of the MCGIS,and other function packages are babed on it.The whole system remains open, i.e.,ready to be extende in function.
