Hello,
We are pleased to announce that the SEXTANTE Project (http://www.sextantegis.com/) has released a first version of his analysis suite for gvSIG. The aim of this suite is to add advanced spatial data analysis capabilities to gvSIG (http://www.gvsig.gva.es), for both raster and vector data.
The suite comprises 161 extensions, including modules dealing with geostatistics, geomorphometry, hydrology or point pattern analysis, among others, along with basic raster and vector data handling utilities. It is still a development version, so not all the extensions are fully developed, and many of them are likely to be enhanced or even completely rewritten in future stable versions. However, all of them are fully functional in this release.
It is worth noting that not only this first release of SEXTANTE is still under development, but also some parts of gvSIG itself (i.e. the ones related to raster data handling), which still lacks some basic functionalities which would greatly improve the usability of the whole SEXTANTE-gvSIG system. We are working closely with the gvSIG development team to solve this as soon as possible. For this reason, bugs and limitations may appear, and we would like you to report on them in order to help us improve the quality of our software. Caution should be exercised specially when using extensions dealing with raster layers, as gvSIG still has some limitations for handling this kind of data.
No documentation is available at the moment but we plan to publish it soon, along with new extensions and features.
Binaries and sources can be downloaded from the SEXTANTE official website at http://www.sextantegis.com <http://www.sextantegis.com/>
Both the website and the software are only available in spanish, but english versions are on its way.
Regards. Victor Olaya Ferrero UNEX Alvaro Anguix IVER TI SA
