Open source WebGIS platform

Keywords: Open Source WebGIS platform

 

This site introduces you to the International Open-source WebGIS project, which has common features: free use and open source code (for specific usage rules, see the lisense files on each platform ), we hope to bring you into the broad open source GIS world.

Freegis organization http://www.freegis.org

This website provides freegis platform index, which can be found here for all major freegis platforms in the world.

Maptools organization http://www.maptools.org

This website provides open source GIS Resources

OGC organization http://www.opengeospatial.org

Developers of International Open GIS standards, ESRI, Intergraph, Mapinfo, Oracle, sun, and Bea are all OGC members.

MySQL database http://www.mysql.com

MySQL supports spatial databases from 4.1 and complies with the OGC specification. The official version is 5.0.

PostgreSQL http://www.postgresql.org Chinese http://www.pgsqldb.org

PostgreSQL is an open-source database with the same name as MySQL. The latest version is 8.0. Through postgis middleware, PostgreSQL (version 7.4 and earlier) supports spatial databases.

Postgis is also an open source http://postgis.refractions.net Project

Oracle Database and application software http://www.oracle.com

Oracle has been supporting spatial databases since 8 I. It currently has an absolute advantage in the commercial space database field.

Oracle 8i/9i provides SDO Java APIs for developers to read, write, convert, and analyze data. It also provides an Oracle 9i Application Server J2EE container Based on o9ias) server-client WebGIS application system example (to install this example, you must first install the Oracle 9i Database and o9ias Application Server. Your computer requires at least 1 GB of CPU and MB of memory, it takes more than 1 GB of memory to run smoothly ). Note that the SDK Java API library of 9i has been upgraded to 10 Gb, and Oracle does not provide download. (This site downloads the API package API documentation development manual development example)
Note: The above SDO files are applicable to Oracle 8.1.7 to 9.2.x, and have not been tested for version 10.

In addition to the original SDO, the Oracle 10 Gb New Path Analysis and network topology analysis API packages are added, and the spatial routing engine based on the Oracle Application Server or the Oracle J2EE container is added, the API package and routing engine can be downloaded free of charge from the Oracle website. (to install the routing engine, you must first install the Oracle10g Database and the o10gas (or Solaris) application server, your computer requires at least 1 GB of CPU and MB of memory ). (Please download it from the official Oracle website)
