The key issue between cartography and GIS is that cartography is concerned with representation while GIS is concerned with analysis of spatial relationships. GIS is a product of the development of computer-assisted cartography, which generated geo-referenced spatial digital databases. With a GIS certificate, you can find employment as a GIS technician, an analyst, a project manager, or a GIS programmer or developer. The duties of a GIS technician include handling data set collection and mapping responsibilities using existing software and applications.
