Personal information systems

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Information systems are personal if their basic data or the search criteria are mainly organized according to the characteristics of people .

In contrast to spatial information systems ( GIS , LIS ), which mostly work with two to three-dimensional coordinates , systems related to people are multi-dimensional. Important features are:

  • First and first name
  • Age, gender
  • Profession, education, property
  • Marital status, possibly health data
  • Address, telephone, workplace (transition to GIS and LIS )
  • further details personally (size, eye and hair color ...)
  • further details economic (customer characteristics, memberships)

Further information systems can be time-related, represent collections of laws or contracts (see e.g. land register or real estate agent ), be relevant for business , administration , etc.
