Export to Mapserver map file for example for UMN Map Server

Support for spatially enabled PostgreSQL tables using PostGIS

Tool for simple analysis

Quantum GIS

Thuban

Interactive geographic data viewer

Written in Python and C++ and uses the wxWindows library

Allows the user to create a session that displays geographic data and then explore that data through navigation and manipulation of how it is drawn

Extensible and multi-platform

Multi-Language Support:

English, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish

Thuban

PostGIS

Tool for managing geodata in RDBMS

Based on OGC Simple Features for SQL

Extension to PostgreSQL RDBMS

PostGIS

PostGIS

SELECT name FROM country WHERE

the_geom &&

Expand(GeomFromText('POINT(15.8 40.1)',-1),10) AND Distance(GeomFromText('POINT(15.8 40.1)',-1),the_geom)<10

PostGIS

CREATE TABLE silnice_cr

AS SELECT Transform(the_geom, 102065), *

FROM silnice_eu WHERE the_geom && Transform((SELECT the_geom FROM staty WHERE cntry_name='Czech Republic'), (SELECT srid FROM geometry_colums WHERE f_table_name='silnice_eu'))

Objective goals

Give the set of open source software to our students in one compact form

Give the tutorial data and set of tools to high schools in one compact form

Prepare set of useful tutorials for used software

Prepare data from the Czech republic available free of charge

Advertise open source GIS tools

Advertise OS Linux

Ideas

Give the platform for distribution of educational materials

Give the platform for making tutorials and educational materials

Make the tools, that automatically made tutorials with defined rules and give users possibilities for easy distributions tutorials
