spatial data information systems
I don't have sufficient context provided to write an accurate overview of geographic information systems based on the minimal phrase "spatial data information systems." To create a 2-sentence explanation that is both accurate and based only on the given context, I would need more detailed information about geographic information systems.

Encyclopedic overview
Basic GIS concept
A geographic information system (GIS) consists of integrated computer hardware and software that store, manage, analyze, edit, output, and visualize geographic data. Much of this often happens within a spatial database; however, this is not essential to meet the definition of a GIS. In a broader sense, one may consider such a system also to include human users and support staff, procedures and workflows, the body of knowledge of relevant concepts and methods, and institutional organizations.
