摘要：

This is an exploratory study examining the predictors of geographic information systems (GIS) adoption among nonprofit organizations. A variety of organization, system, and environment characteristics are measured via a survey administered to 72 managers of nonprofit organizations. Comparisons are made between GIS and website adoption by these organizations. Results indicate that nonprofit managers view characteristics related to GIS differently than characteristics related to websites. GIS adoption is also related to the size of the information systems (IS) staff, risk propensity, and ability to predict changes in demand.
