GIS project is initiative to package GIS related technologies and make it the best distribution for Fedora and EPEL platforms.
The GIS project is an initiative to package GIS related software, to make Fedora and EPEL attractive platforms for you GIS needs. It also covers some software from adjacent fields, like remote sensing or geodesy.


Fedora GIS activists hang out in [irc://irc.freenode.org/fedora-gis #fedora-gis] channel.
