Osgeo: traditional analytic gis
packages concerning traditional analytic GIS

OSGEO Desktop apps part 1

Debian packages which are dealing traditional analytic GIS

FIXME: Idea from https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/bin/install_icons_and_menus.sh#L34 but needs enhancement

The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian GIS Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in Debian GIS which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian GIS to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian GIS mailing list

Det bliver oftest refereret som GRASS, et geografisk informationssystem (Geographic Information System, GIS) som anvendes til geografisk datahåndtering og analyse, billedbehandling, produktion af grafik/kort, geografisk modellering, og visualisering. GRASS bruges i øjeblikket i mange akademiske og kommercielle sammenhænge verden rundt, såvel som af offentlige myndigheder og konsulentvirksomheder som beskæftiger sig med miljøet.

Installer denne virtuelle pakke for at få et fuldt GRASS-system.

The package is enhanced by the following packages: e00compr

Et geografisk informationssystem (GIS) håndterer, analyserer og viser databaser med geografisk information. QGIS håndterer visning af shape-fil og redigering, rumlig datalager med PostgreSQL/PostGIS, løbende beskyttelse, kortopbygning og et antal andre funktioner via en grænseflade for udvidelsesmoduler. QGIS understøtter også visning af diverse formater for georefererede rastere og Digital Elevation Model (DEM) inklusive GeoTIFF, Arc/Info ASCII Grid og USGS ASCII DEM.

SAGA GIS (System for Automated Geoscientific Analyses) er et frit geografisk informationssystem udviklet i åben kildekode. Programmet bruges til redigering og analyse af delvise data. Der er inkluderet et stort antal moduler for analyse af vektor- (punkt, linje og polygon), tabel-, net- og billeddata. Blandt andet inkluderer pakken moduler for geostatistik, billedklassfikation, projektioner, simulering af dynamiske processer (hydrologi, landskabsudvikling) og terrænanalyse. Funktionaliteten kan tilgås via en grafisk brugerflade, kommandolinjen eller ved at brug C++-API'en.

The SpatiaLite extension enables SQLite to support spatial (geometry) data in a way conformant to OpenGis specifications, with both WKT and WKB formats.

Spatialite also includes Virtualshape and Virtualtext to enable accessing shapefiles and csv/text files as virtual tables.

This package contains tools useful to manage SQLite databases.

Packaging has started and developers might try the packaging code in VCS
