Summary
Christine is a useful, easy-to-use tool that brings geographic information to
your desktop. Christine gives you the power to visualize, explore, query and
analyze data spatially. A key feature of Christine is that it's easy to load
tabular data, such as dBASE files and data from database servers. Using
Christine you can display, query, summarize, and organize this ... data
geographically.

GIS is near future of information systems, because practically every
information has spatial location. Christine does not hold maps or pictures - it
holds a database. The database concept is central to a GIS and is the main
difference between a GIS and a simple drafting or computer mapping system which
can only produce good graphic output. Christine is a display and query tool
that can perform many of the tasks involved in the spatial analysis of
geographic databases.
