To use precompiled wheels: 1) go to releases (Files) and download tarball needed; 2) install it with command: python3 -m pip install /path/to/wheel.whl Or simply use URL in pip: python3 -m pip install https://sourceforge.net/projects/gdal-wheels-for-linux/files/GDAL-3.1.4-cp37-cp37m-manylinux_2_5_x86_64.manylinux1_x86_64.whl/download URL may be found under "View details" button (i) To use GDAL in C/C++ project you need to link gdal lib AND all libs located at dir GDAL.libs (usually this folder resides inside python site-packages) To compile your own wheels see information given at forefather project: https://github.com/youngpm/gdalmanylinux Usually this is done via command `make wheels` GDAL wheels for Windows are provided by Christoph Gohlke at https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#gdal Built with PROJ (proj.db is included), GEOS, EXPAT. See Dockerfile.wheels for additional components.

Scala and polyglot Spark library (Scala, PySpark, SparkSQL, ... ) focused on reading OpenStreetMap Pbf files.

TopoGen is a small PyGTK application which will make a topographic image overlay for Google Earth using the given coordinate boundaries.

GEOMS2 is a geostatistics and geosciences modeling software. Provides interface for grid (mesh), point, surface and data (non-spatial) objects. It has a 3D viewer and 2D plots using the well known Python engines Mayavi and Matplotlib. It has several functions to manipulate your data as well as provide univariate and multivariate analysis. NOTE: The software is still an early beta. Please tell us if you found a bug.

ZMapServer is a Zope Product that provides a clean interface to the MapServer (http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu) web mapping application.

LAnd Survey Tools "LAST" was created to preserve and expand on the work invested in an old, privately used, DOS based land survey construction and data collection application by porting much of the C++ coded logic and design concept over to Python.

Liegkat-Archiv delivers ALK converters for spatial data formats (EDBS, BGRUND, SQD, DFK, HK) and coordinate systems used in German cadastral agencies before ALKIS into KML and JML. It delivers Python packages and XSL files.

This is a Python interface for reading and writing Magellan GPS unit map files. There is also a command line tool for creating GPS maps from OpenStreetMap data.

Croizat is a free, user-friendly, cross-platform desktop software package which biologists can use to integrate and analyze spatial data on species or other taxa and to explore geographical patterns in diversity under a panbiogeographic and graph-theoretic approach.

Directory of geoinformational data and metadata, like georeferenced list of streets in your city, or list of known nomenclature map tiles, and tools to process this data.

TerraLook provides access to satellite images for users that lack prior experience with remote sensing or Geographic Information System (GIS) technology by combining collections of images with a set of simple visualization and analysis tools.

Mapnik is an OpenSource C++/Python toolkit for developing GIS (Geographic Information Systems) applications. At the core is a C++ shared library providing algorithms/patterns for spatial data access and visualization.

openModeller is a complete C++ framework for species potential distribution modelling. The project also includes a graphical user interface, a web service interface and an API for Python.

AICtools is a GIS workflow and set of tools to facilitate Automated Imagery Classification (AIC) and analysis of surface features over time. Allows bulk processing of large data sets, including automated metadata processing/filtering, compressed archive extraction and file manipulation, raster band compositing, pre-processing, mosaicking, clipping. Automates a subset of operations involved in classification of satellite imagery and the associated raster calculations used for time trend analysis.

AIS Logger is a simple viewer and logger for data received by AIS-transponders or -receivers.

AVPython embeds the Python programming language within ArcView GIS 3.x. This project will also encompass efforts to build a similar bridge between Python and ArcObjects. An integrated, redistributable Python / PyWin32 setup wizard is also published here.

The aim of this project is to translate the geostatistical BMELib Matlab Toolbox (http://www.unc.edu/depts/case/BMELIB/) into Python.

Python script for Geocachers. Takes GPX file (eg from Geotoad), downloads waypoints to Garmin Etrex, and produces OpenOffice quick-reference document with the descriptions and hints.

FastVersion is a Qgis plugin for data versioning in a Postgis database. This plugin provides data versioning to tables with geometry stored in postgis. It allows to create, changes and eliminate versions, and within each version , to insert, modify and eliminate elements. It is possible carry out the processes of “post” from one version to another, with conflict resolution functionality. The system uses algorithms and data structures so that information is not duplicated each time a version is created. We recommend downloading it from the Qgis app. Plugins->Manage and Install Plugins->Settings->Show also experimental plugins Plugins->Manage and Install Plugins->Search FastVersion If downloaded from sourceforge, it must be unzipped in \.qgis2\python\plugins

Fielddata Mgr Overview This is a Python program, which means that one must install the open source freely available Python interpreter and a few required also open source, freely available modules that support the functionality of the program. The program "Fielddata Mgr", is customized for the Rick survey department, in such that it supports up to 9 chiefs, each having their own folder in one location, 2 supervisers, each with a PC on the network, and access to a main server. Each day, the .RAW file is copied to the appropriate chiefs folder and when Fielddata Mgr is run, or the reload button is clicked, all .RAW files are listed along with a long list of all job folders existing in a designated location, and a short list of frequently accessed jobs that are selected from within the long list. When a .RAW file is selected, the contents are read, interpreted, and the results displayed within the program window. For remaining information please read the info sht.
