GIS is an acronym for?

  1. Geographic Information System

  2. General Insurance Services

  3. Global Identification Services

  4. Geographical Institute of Science

The correct answer is: Geographic Information System

GIS stands for Geographic Information System, meaning it is a technology that deals with capturing, storing, managing, and analyzing geographical data. Option B (General Insurance Services) and C (Global Identification Services) do not relate to geography or spatial data, so they are incorrect. Option D (Geographical Institute of Science) is a made-up term and not commonly used, so it is also not the correct answer. Therefore, the only accurate choice is A (Geographic Information System).
