Folks, Just a quick mail to let you know that there is a local chapter of OSGeo forming at the moment (very early days yet).
OSGeo was created to support the collaborative development of open source geospatial software, and promote its widespread use. In other words, OSGeo is to Esri (ArcGIS etc) what OpenStreetMap is to OSi. To give you an idea of some of the software it supports. see below == Web Mapping == deegree geomajas GeoMOOSE GeoServer Mapbender MapBuilder MapFish MapGuide Open Source MapServer OpenLayers == Desktop Applications == GRASS GIS Marble QGIS == Geospatial Libraries == FDO GDAL/OGR GEOS GeoTools OSSIM PostGIS If anyone is currently using any software in this field or interested in learning more, the chapter wiki is here [1]. You can also sign up for the mailing list to keep up to date on developments and hear about workshops, meetings, etc. here [2] Dave [1] http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Ireland [2] http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ireland <irel...@lists.osgeo.org> _______________________________________________ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
