I work in commercial real estate. We use demographic data to predict annual rev for potential retail sites. I not sure how the government uses GIS. I assume for planning purposes. In retail, it's location, location, location--so knowing the demographics, traffic flows, and competitive landscape of a given area is extremely valuable. Hope this helps, mark
