Geographic Information System (GIS)
There are a number of GIS commands that can be executed through Connect. For most GIS commands, the actual command name is GIS or a phrase beginning with the GIS acronym. The generic structure of most GIS commands is:

The {GISOption} indicates the action being executed by the command, and will change depending on the action you wish to take. Additional <Parameters> may be required depending on the {GISOption} specified.
