Geographic Information System

GIS project is initiative to package GIS related technologies and make it the best distribution for Fedora and EPEL platforms.

EPSG - OGP Surveying and Positioning Committee Geodetic Parameter Dataset
GDAL - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
GEOS - Geometry Engine - Open Source
GMT - Generic Mapping Tools
GRASS - Geographic Resources Analysis Support System
MapServer - Development environment for building spatially-enabled internet applications
OGDI - Open Geographic Datastore Interface
PostGIS - PostGIS adds support for geographic objects in PostgreSQL
PROJ.4 - Cartographic Projections Library
QGIS - Quantum GIS (QGIS) is a user friendly Open Source Geographic Information System

BeeGIS - opensource tool for Digital Field Mapping. Seems that they didn't try to build it for Linux (although its based upon JGrass/uDig/Eclipse).
GeoTools - The Open Source Java GIS Toolkit.
JGrass - open source GIS based on the GIS framework of uDig (that is why the intro looks so similar to that of uDig). JGrass tries to exploit in its engine the power of GRASS.
MapGuide - web-based platform for developing and deployment web mapping applications and geospatial web services.
OSSIM - high performance software system for remote sensing, image processing , geographical information systems and photogrammetry.
Thuban - Interactive Geographic Data Viewer.
uDig - open source (LGPL) desktop application framework, built with Eclipse Rich Client (RCP) technology.
