description The awareness among valuers to improve valuation analyses has induced the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) as a spatial tool. This tool has, at least, two main attractions to property valuation. First, the capability of providing an integrated database handling system, simultaneously relating spatial and attribute data of properties. Second, the capability of spatial operation and representation of these data. These functions can be performed in conjunction with multiple regression analysis (MRA) for a number of spatial analyses to improve modelling analyses. The MRA has been used as an aspatial analysis tool for real estate problems since 1920's. Characterized by its "correlation" and "prediction" features, this technique provides statistical reasoning capabilities. However, although the statistical milieu provides models that are capable of producing relatively accurate and consistent regression estimates, the technique does not possess spatial analysis capability. This capability is felt necessary because the incidence of property values are locationally distributed. Furthermore, many complex phenomena that change spatially and temporally can only be better understood by analyzing them in a visualized manner. GIS fills in this gap.
