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

Questo è un sistema GIS (Geographic Information System - sistema informativo geografico) comunemente chiamato GRASS (sistema di supporto per l'analisi di risorse geografiche), usato per la gestione e l'analisi di dati geospaziali, elaborazione di immagini, produzione di grafici e mappe, modellazioni spaziali e visualizzazioni. GRASS è attualmente utilizzato nei settori accademici e commerciali in tutto il mondo, come anche da molte agenzie governative e compagnie di consulenza ambientale.

Installare questo pacchetto virtuale per avere un sistema GRASS completo.

The package is enhanced by the following packages: e00compr

Un GIS (Geographic Information System, sistema informativo geografico) gestisce, analizza e visualizza database di informazioni geografiche. QGIS gestisce la visualizzazione e la modifica di shapefile, memorizzazione di dati spaziali con PostgreSQL/PostGIS, proiezioni al volo, composizione di mappe e diverse altre funzionalità tramite un'interfaccia a plugin. QGIS gestisce anche la visualizzazione di diversi formati raster e DEM (Digital Elevation Model) georeferenziati tra i quali: GeoTIFF, Arc/Info ASCII Grid e USGS ASCII DEM.

SAGA GIS (System for Automated Geoscientific Analyses, sistema per analisi geoscientifiche automatiche) è un sistema libero e open source per informazioni geografiche, usato per modificare e analizzare dati spaziali. Include un vasto numero di moduli per l'analisi di dati di vettori (punti, linee e poligoni), tabelle, reticoli e immagini. Il pacchetto include, tra gli altri, moduli per la geostatistica, la classificazione di immagini, le proiezioni, la simulazione di processi dinamici (idrologia, sviluppo del paesaggio) e analisi del terreno. Alle funzionalità si può accedere attraverso una GUI, la riga di comando o usando l'API C++.

L'estensione SpatiaLite permette a SQLite di gestire dati spaziali (geometrici) in modo conforme alle specifiche OpenGis, in entrambi i formati WKT e WKB.

Spatialite include anche Virtualshape e Virtualtext per permettere l'accesso come tabelle virtuali a shapefile e file csv o di testo.

Questo pacchetto contiene strumenti utili per gestire database SQLite.

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