Toolkit for working with and mapping geospatial data
GeoTools is an open source (LGPL) Java code library which provides standards compliant methods for the manipulation of geospatial data.
GeoTools is an Open Source Geospatial Foundation project.
The GeoTools library data structures are based on Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) specifications.
The MWDB2 project is a combination of cartographic data, associated programs and Java code. Data includes coastlines, islands, lakes rivers, country and state/province boundaries. Data & code can be used on both Intel and non-Intel based computers.
ScapeToad is an easy to use application for the cartogram creation. Cartograms are deformed maps where the polygon size is proportional to a given statistical value. ScapeToad reads and writes Shapefiles.
See <https://github.com/christiankaiser/ScapeToad> for the latest version of the code.
