Zusammenfassung:	Geographic information systems (GISs) provide map based spatial analyses of geo‐coded data. In this paper we examine a methodological framework for geographic information systems development that was developed and refined over a six year period based upon a fire prevention support geographic information system for a UK fire and rescue service. The methodological framework involves the use of a multi‐methodology approach that incorporates social and organizational analysis, spatial modelling, and functional design.
