The FreeGIS-CD's sixth edition (v1.1.0) adds geographic
information processing capabilities to major GNU/Linux distributions.
Osnabrück, Germany, 8th of June 2001.
Intevation GmbH, the leading Free Software Company in the area
of geographic information systems published the sixth edition of
its compiliation of Free Software and data for spatial data processing.
For a long time geographic information systmes (GIS)
were regarded high-level and cost intensive solutions,
demanding high-priced hardware and skilled operators.
The now published FreeGIS-Cd was tested on major Linux based
GNU-Systems, like RedHat, Mandrake, Suse and Debian and
significantly lowers the entry barrier towards the world of GIS.
"This collection demonstrates the high potential of Free Software
for spatial data processing", explains Jan-Oliver Wagner the coordinator
of the FreeGIS-Project. "This is only the beginning as the development
is under full steam. We will continue to bring our clients the best
solution with Free Software."
