All, I did some related research on this last moth, trying different
packages and ideas about hoe to create GeoPDF(a little easier) and
3DPDFs(harder) while both options for output are indeed open standards,
there are only a select few tools to generate the output, and all the
(good) ones I could find were commercial.
I've put aside the ideas for a while, but I'm still very interested in
this type of processing, specifically the 3DPDF generation. If any
others here discover any tools related to U3D and/or 3DPDF generation, I
would very much appreciate pointers.
Thanks

Isn't GeoPDF a proprietary and payed format?
It is an open Standard. Both OGC 08-139r1 and ISO 32000. However, I've
never seen it used outside of the Adobe/ESRI scope, so a better
question is what OS software either support rendering or displaying
GeoPDFs?
Considering my impressions of the state of GeoPDF, I don't think it
ins't the best option for distributing data on a CD. My suggestion is
to store the vector data in SHP or Spatialite format, and have a
desktop GIS on the same LiveCD. My vote is for Quantum GIS (QGIS)
since it is the easiest to make a nice looking map that is also
interactive.
