AVCE00 is a C library and group of tools that makes Arcinfo (binary) Vector Coverages appear as E00. It allows you to read and write binary coverages just as if they were E00 files.

E00compr is an ANSI C library that reads and writes Arcinfo compressed E00 files. Both "PARTIAL" and "FULL" compression levels are supported. E00 files are the vector import/export format for Arcinfo. It is plain ASCII and is meant as an interchange format. ESRI considers the format to be proprietary, so this package may not read all E00 files as ESRI may change the format.

This package is useful for importing E00 files into the grass GIS system.

It contains the e00conv command-line program, which takes a E00 file as input (compressed or not) and copies it to a new file with the requested compression level (NONE, PARTIAL or FULL). The library is not included at this stage.

Epsilon is C library for Wavelet based lossy image compression. Wavelet-driven compressors are know to be much more effective than traditional DCT-based ones (like JPEG).

pprepair (planar partition repair) takes a set of polygons and ensures that they form a valid planar partition, made of valid polygons and having no gaps or overlaps. It can be used as a validator, telling of problems in individual polygons or in the planar partition, and also as an automatic repair tool, outputting a set of polygons that do form a valid planar partition.

prepair permits you to easily repair "broken" GIS polygons, and that according to the international standards ISO 19107. In brief, given a polygon stored in WKT, it automatically repairs it and gives you back a valid WKT. Automated repair methods can be considered as interpreting ambiguous or ill-defined polygons and giving a coherent and clearly defined output.

PySAL is an open source library of spatial analysis functions written in Python intended to support the development of high level applications.

It is important to underscore what PySAL is, and is not, designed to do. First and foremost, PySAL is a library in the fullest sense of the word. Developers looking for a suite of spatial analytical methods that they can incorporate into application development should feel at home using PySAL. Spatial analysts who may be carrying out research projects requiring customized scripting, extensive simulation analysis, or those seeking to advance the state of the art in spatial analysis should also find PySAL to be a useful foundation for their work.

End users looking for a user friendly graphical user interface for spatial analysis should not turn to PySAL directly. Instead, they should consider projects like STARS and the GeoDaX suite of software products which wrap PySAL functionality in GUIs. At the same time, it's expected that with developments such as the Python based plug-in architectures for QGIS, GRASS, and the toolbox extensions for ArcGIS, that end user access to PySAL functionality will be widening in the near future.

Total Open Station (TOPS for friends) is a free software program for downloading and processing data from total station devices.

This is a task which is usually done by proprietary, dedicated and Windows™-only software, but TOPS is different by nature, because:

• it is free software released under the GNU GPLv3 license;
• it works on any operating system, including mobile platforms like OpenMoko;
• it is designed to support as many devices and formats as possible, all within the same program, opposed to having one program per device.

Every model has its own quirks, but TOPS uses a modular structure and keeps the downloading of data logically separated from its processing, thus enabling exporting data to a variety of output formats, even at a later moment. Archiving of raw data is made easy by using plain text files.

本プログラムは一般的に GRASS と呼ばれ、地理空間データの管理および分析、 画像処理、グラフィック/地図作成、空間モデリング、そして可視化に用いられる 地理情報システム (GIS) です。GRASS は現在世界中の学術分野および商用分野に加え、 多くの政府機関や環境コンサルティング会社で利用されています。

This goal will require a synergetic convergence of the fields of CAD, GIS, visual simulation, surveying and remote sensing. VTP gathers information and tracks progress in areas such as procedural scene construction, feature extraction, and rendering algorithms. VTP writes and supports a set of software tools, including an interactive runtime environment (VTP Enviro). The tools and their source code are freely shared to help accelerate the adoption and development of the necessary technologies.

Capaware! is conceived as a system of 3D terrain representation with multilayer representation of diverse types of resources capabilities and executed applications integration feature.

With OpenSceneGraph as the graphical engine, Capaware! enables the creation and modification of new layers of data through access to remote servers where they are. Moreover, the system can be completed with new features and programmed executables through the use of specific plugins. In this way we can gradually increase the power of the final system.
