  • AGD Landscape & Environment 6 (2) 2012. 76-92. COMPARISON of the MOST POPULAR OPEN-SOURCE GIS SOFTWARE in the FIELD of LANDS
    AGD Landscape & Environment 6 (2) 2012. 76-92. COMPARISON OF THE MOST POPULAR OPEN-SOURCE GIS SOFTWARE IN THE FIELD OF LANDSCAPE ECOLOGY SZEMÁN ISTVÁN1 1University of Debrecen, Department of Landscape Protection and Environmental Geography, Debrecen, 4032, Egyetem tér 1. E-mail: [email protected] Received 2 March 2012; accepted in revised form 21 December 2012 Abstract GIS (Geographic Information System) software is a very useful tool in modern landscape ecology research. With its help data can be obtained which can - after processing - help to understand and demonstrate the processes taking place in the landscape. Since direct environmental measurements and sampling from a large area are, in many cases, difficult or even impossible, modelling with GIS tools is very important in the workflow of landscape research and landscape analysis. In this article we review the best known open source GIS systems and geographic information tools with possibilities for landscape ecology application. Furthermore we will introduce all the basic concepts that are associated with these open source software programmes. We provide a comparative analysis of the most widely used open source GIS applications, where, through a specific example, we will examine how these tools are used to produce basic landscape metric indicators. We will examine those functions of the programmes that are necessary to produce a complete thematic map, and finally we will emphasize various other important functions of the software to give adequate information for those users who choose open source code GIS tools, for financial reasons or otherwise, to complete a landscape ecology analysis. Our opinion is that this type of comparison is much more informative than those done by proprietary software, because these latter are all based on a basic data library, and therefore yield similar results (proj4, gdal/ogr, jts/geos, etc.) to their ‘paid’ competitors.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Although open source softwares (OSS) for GIS and Remote Sensing are rapidly expanding and im- proving in the global context, there has been uncertainty at higher education institutions in de- veloping countries, such as the department of forestry (Dfo) at Unitech, Papua New Guinea (PNG), regarding appropriate GIS softwares and hardware to acquire and use for teaching and research purposes. The paper briefly describes the characteristics of some mature OSS and discusses their main capabilities, advantages and disadvantages. Their adoption in the Dfo curricula may be ad- vantageous in the long term, considering issues of learning curve steepness, versatibility, afforda- bility, effectiveness, and documentation available on them. Keywords Open Source Software; GIS Software; Forestry Education 1. Introduction GIS is a key technology for developing countries in domains such as environmental protection, urban manage- ment, agricultural production, deforestation mapping, public health assessment, and socioeconomic measure- ments. It is defined as a system of software components that maintain a spatially aware database, provides ana- lytical tools that enable spatial queries of the database, allows the association of locations with imported graphi- cal data, and provides graphical and tabular output.

  • A Selection of Software for Processing Geospatial Data Is Presented in Table 1.1 and Table 1.2. Note That You May Need Some Time
    A selection of software for processing geospatial data is presented in Table 1.1 and Table 1.2. Note that you may need some time to find the best software for a specific task or project. Terminology: Freeware: Freeware (a combination of the words "free" and "software") is software that is available for use at no cost or fee, but usually with one or more restricted usage rights. Compared the FOSS (see below) the source code is usually not published and hence the software can’t be modified and adjusted by 3rd parties. FOSS: Free and open-source software (F/OSS, FOSS) or free/libre/open-source software (FLOSS) is software that is both: 1) free software and 2) open source. It is licensed in the way that users are granted the right to use, copy, study, change, and improve its design through the availability of its source code. Free GIS software Description Terra MA2 (old SISM DEN) is a software product, a computational system, based on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), which provides the technological infrastructure required to develop operational systems for environmental risks monitoring and alert. TerraMA2 provides services to gather updated data through internet and to add it to the alert system database; services to manipulate/analyze new data in real time and check Terra MA2 if a risk situation exists by comparing with risk maps or a defined model; Monitoring, Analysis and Alert services to execute/edit/create new risk and alert models; services to create www.dpi.inpe.br/terrama2/ and notify alerts to system users; and other basic and advanced services.

  • Software (R+GIS+GE) 2
    3 1 Software (R+GIS+GE) 2 This chapter will introduce you to five main packages that we will later on use in various exercises from 3 chapter 5 to 11: R, SAGA, GRASS, ILWIS and Google Earth (GE). All these are available as open source 4 or as freeware and no licenses are needed to use them. By combining the capabilities of the five software 5 packages we can operationalize preparation, processing and the visualization of the generated maps. In this 6 handbook, ILWIS GIS will be primarily used for basic editing and to process and prepare vector and raster 7 maps; SAGA/GRASS GIS will be used to run analysis on DEMs, but also for geostatistical interpolations; R 8 + packages will be used for various types of statistical and geostatistical analysis, but also for data processing 9 automation; Google Earth will be used for visualization and interpretation of results. 10 In all cases we will use R to control all pro- 11 cesses, so that each exercise will culminate in a sin- 12 gle R script (‘R on top’; Fig. 3.1). In subsequent sec- 13 tion, we will refer to the R + Open Source Desk- 14 top GIS combo of applications that combine geo- Statistical 15 computing graphical and statistical analysis and visualization as 16 R+GIS+GE. 17 GDAL This chapter is meant to serve as a sort of a 18 19 mini-manual that should help you to quickly obtain ground overlays, and install software, take first steps, and start doing time-series KML 20 some initial analysis.

  • 5 Open Source GIS Geospatial Software for Archaeology: Towards Its Integration Into Everyday Archaeological Practice
    Hector Orengo 5 Open Source GIS Geospatial Software for Archaeology: Towards its Integration into Everyday Archaeological Practice 5.1 Introduction Geospatial software refers to all software employed to display, manipulate, analyse and produce geospatial information. Although this term is normally used for soft- ware classied as geographic information systems (GIS) it also includes others that can work with and produce geographically referenced information such as CAD, Re- mote Sensing or photogrammetric software. This paper focuses on GIS but references will be also made to other types of geospatial software that can work in conjunction or complement GIS. During the last 20 years GIS have played an increasingly important role in archae- ology. Their capacity to work on a multi-layered and multi-scale spatial frame ren- ders them a very exible tool to handle all spatially referenced information. Nowa- days, they are routinely employed in archaeological research and practice with more researchers applying them to address not only landscape but also on site issues. How- ever, their incorporation into the archaeologist’s toolbox is relatively recent. The rst GIS software (if they could have been called as such back then) were developed in the 60s and they were restricted to very basic functions, such as the creation of 3D messes or the extraction of contours. During the 70s the rst commercial software was de- veloped by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), the most successful vendor of proprietary software today. The rst applications, however, of GIS to archae- ological research were only later developed under the inuence of New Geography by the American pioneers of New Archaeology.
