I'm interested in open source GIS and transportation.
Though I am on the east coast of Australia...

I am a member of a professional institution that is considering setting up
a web feature service that publishes point locations, of members and
offices, in a global context.

Hello list,
I am looking for a GML v2.1 file for testing purposes.
It does not have to be very large at all, or of any particular area, just
enough
to test that an import function works.
Any suggestions on where I can find one?

Hello list,
Does there exist a FOSS GIS client that consumes a WFS feed, without the
need to save the data locally.
Similar to the way WMS works. The COTS GIS we use requires a local copy of
the data (WFS).
Ie, every time you zoom or pan, the client refreshes from the WFS source.
This would al

Does there exist a free application for quickly designing a building
floorplan?
One with drag-and-drop furniture, bench cabinets, plumbing etc?
Something suitable for doing the concept phase of a house renovation?
Yes, that's right, I'm thinking about putting up an extension, and

Has anyone read this? Is it useful?

I would describe the topological relationships as something like this;
region A connects to regions B, C & D
region B connects to regions A & E
region C connects to region A
and so on
And then the (hypothetical) tool would construct geometry that satisfies
the above topological relationships, wh

There are established tools that analyse geographic objects and extract the
topological relationships, what polygon borders what polygon, etc.
Is there anything that does the reverse? That is a tool that given a set of
topological relationships, can build a simple geography that matc
