4. What is Open Source GIS?
What is GIS?
-Geographical Information System
-Geomatic, Geo-Scientific, Geo-Service
-Geospatial Information System
Geo is Location-based
Information is Database
System consists of Hardware,
Software, Data, and Liveware(Human Resources
Generally, Open Source GIS is related to software
Software
Survey
Hardware
Data
Liveware

5. What is Open Source GIS?
Open Source GIS contains
-Open Source GIS Software Program (PostGIS, GeoServer, QGIS, Openlayers)
-Open Data (Open Street Map)
-Open License Policy(GPL, LGPL)
-OGC Standards
-OSGEO community

6. What is Open Source GIS?
 FOSS(Free Open Source Software) is open but doesn’t mean it’s NoCost
 Recently, FOSS is considered as Commercial SW
 FOSS is contrasted to Closed or Proprietary SW
FOSS has several license types
License Type
Free
Distribution

Acquisition
Source
Modification
2nd Product
Re-Open

7. What is Open Source GIS?
Trends of Open Source GIS
 Google Earth adopts open source GIS Library - GDAL
 Conversion of ArcGIS GeoPortal Server into Open Source in
2011
 All Products of ArcGIS Series adopt GDAL
 Transformation of AutoCAD MapGuide, MetaCRS, FDO into Open
Source and Contribution to OSGEO
 85 out of 135 3rd Party Libraries are Open Source
