Daftar/Tabel -- geographic information systems software

GIS software encompasses a broad range of applications which involve the use of a combination of digital maps and georeferenced data. GIS software can be sorted into different categories.[1]

Contents

Open source software

The development of open source GIS software has - in terms of software history - a long tradition[2] with the appearance of a first system in 1978. Numerous systems are available which cover all sectors of geospatial data handling.

Desktop GIS

Capaware rc1 0.1
GRASS GIS 6.4
gvSIG 1.0
IDRISI Taiga 16.05
SAGA-GIS v. 2.0.3

The following open-source desktop GIS projects are reviewed in Steiniger and Bocher (2008/9):[3]

  • GRASS GIS – Originally developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers: a complete GIS.
  • gvSIG – Written in Java. Runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OS X and Windows.
  • ILWIS (Integrated Land and Water Information System) – Integrates image, vector and thematic data.
  • JUMP GIS / OpenJUMP ((Open) Java Unified Mapping Platform) – The desktop GISs OpenJUMP, SkyJUMP, deeJUMP and Kosmo all emerged from JUMP.[3]
  • MapWindow GIS – Free desktop application and programming component.
  • Quantum GIS (QGIS) – Runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OS X and Windows.
  • SAGA GIS (System for Automated Geoscientific Analysis) –- A hybrid GIS software. Has a unique Application Programming Interface (API) and a fast growing set of geoscientific methods, bundled in exchangeable Module Libraries.
  • uDig – API and source code (Java) available.

Besides these, there are other open source GIS tools:

  • Capaware – A C++ 3D GIS Framework with a multiple plugin architecture for geographic graphical analysis and visualization.
  • FalconView – A mapping system created by the Georgia Tech Research Institute for the Windows family of operating systems. A free, open source version is available.
  • Kalypso – Uses Java and GML3. Focuses mainly on numerical simulations in water management.
  • TerraView – Handles vector and raster data stored in a relational or geo-relational database, i.e. a frontend for TerraLib.
  • Whitebox GAT – Transparent GIS software.

Other geospatial tools

Apart from Desktop GIS exists a variety of other GIS software types. For its categorization see GIS software. A general overview of GIS software projects for each category was done in 2012.[4] Below is a similar listing of open source GIS projects.

Web map servers

Spatial database management systems

  • PostGIS – Spatial extensions for the open source PostgreSQL database, allowing geospatial queries.
  • SpatiaLite – Spatial extensions for the open source SQLite database, allowing geospatial queries.
  • TerraLib – Provides advanced functions for GIS analysis.

Software development frameworks and libraries (for web applications)

  • GeoBase (Telogis GIS software)Geospatial mapping software available as a Software development kit, which performs various functions including address lookup, mapping, routing, reverse geocoding, and navigation. Suited for high transaction enterprise environments.
  • Geomajas – Open source development software for web-based and cloud based GIS applications.
  • MapFish – Aggregates the power of OpenLayers, ExtJS and GeoExt.
  • OpenLayers – Open source AJAX library for accessing geographic data layers of all kinds, originally developed and sponsored by MetaCarta.

Software development frameworks and libraries (non-web)

Cataloging application for spatially referenced resources

Other tools

  • Chameleon – Environments for building applications with MapServer.
  • MapPoint – A technology ("MapPoint Web Service", previously known as MapPoint .NET) and a specific computer program created by Microsoft that allows users to view, edit and integrate maps.

Notable commercial or proprietary GIS software

Desktop GIS

Note: Almost all of the below companies offer Desktop GIS and WebMap Server products. Some[which?] offer Spatial DBMS products as well.

Companies with high market share

Companies with minor but notable market share

  • Aquaveo – Developers of GMS, WMS, SMS, which are modular hydrology programs with 3D mapping features.
  • GeoConcept & opti-time; Business oriented GIS packages with 3D, 4D, Geomarketing, optimization features
  • Cadcorp – Products include Cadcorp SIS, GeognoSIS, mSIS and developer kits.
  • Caliper – Products include Maptitude, TransModeler and TransCAD.
  • Dragon/ips – Remote sensing software with GIS capabilities.
  • ENVI – Utilized for image analysis, exploitation, and hyperspectral analysis.
  • Field-Map – GIS tool designed for computer aided field data collection, used mainly for mapping of forest ecosystems.
  • Geosoft – GIS and data processing software used in natural resource exploration.
  • IDRISI – GIS and Image Processing product developed by Clark Labs at Clark University. Affordable and robust, it is used for both operations and education.
  • Manifold System – GIS software package.
  • Belsis – CAD and GIS solutions available as Desktop and Web application products.
  • Netcad – Desktop and web based GIS products developed by Ulusal CAD ve GIS Çözümleri A.Ş..
  • RegioGraph by GfK GeoMarketing – GIS software for business planning and analyses; company also provides compatible maps and market data.
  • Spatialinfo – provides GIS solutions for telecommunication networks. Products include spatialNET, spatialWEB, spatialOFFLINE, spatialCONFLATOR, ADDRESSmanager and MAPupdater.

Spatial DBMS

  • Boeing's Spatial Query Server – Spatially enables Sybase ASE.
  • DB2 – Allows spatial querying and storing of most spatial data types.
  • Informix – Allows spatial querying and storing of most spatial data types.
  • Microsoft SQL Server 2008 – The latest player in the market of storing and querying spatial data. GIS products such as MapInfo and Cadcorp SIS can read and edit this data while ESRI and others are expected to be able to read and edit this data within the next few months.
  • Oracle Spatial – Product allows users to perform complex geographic operations and store common spatial data types in a native Oracle environment. Most commercial GIS packages can read and edit spatial data stored in this way.
  • PostGIS – Based on the free PostgreSQL database.
  • Teradata – Teradata geospatial allows storage and spatial analysis on location-based data which is stored using native geospatial data-types within the Teradata database.
  • VMDS – Version managed data store from Smallworld.
