GIS plays a major role in integrating diverse multi-scale, multi-disciplinary spatial data from geological rock samples to multi-spectral satellite imagery for use in solving complex geological, geophysical, environmental and geotechnical problems. Examples illustrate the roles that GIS plays in the oil and gas industry, commercial development, environmental studies and geological research (such as analogs of deep ancient oil reservoirs.) GIS is unique in capturing a wide variety of data, data quality modifiers, an integration tool, and a means of storing analytical methods. With over 60 years of historical GIS data over Qatar, GIS is now the mainstay analytical tool.'
