A drawing canvas build around a family tree database for drawing family trees based on that database.

GedLynk is a Java desktop project which allows users to synchronize and merge genealogy data with remote sources such as new FamilySearch or PhpGedView. Also available is a Java library for communicating with the new FamilySearch or PhpGedView APIs.

Genealogy application using DOCX and XML technology. Use of DOCX enables ‘mail merge’ style fields to be used that are bound to the encapsulated XML.

GenTle is software tool for genealogy research. It enables to work with genealogy data, its displaying and storing.

Genepool is a Java and SQL based geneaology software, designed to be user-friendly but powerful at the same time. It will also be able to output to a variety of formats, and be able to combine several trees into a big one.

Genea is an database-driven application for storing person-related data of whole regions and creating family-trees. These can be printed, saved as image-files and exchange with other genealogy-applications utilizing the GEDCOM-format.

Genea-GEDCOM is a library for reading, writing and manipulating GEDCOM files. It is written in C# and currently supports GEDCOM 5.5.

GeneaPro is a multi-user, cross-platform Genealogy database program based on the GenTech Genealogical Data Model. Written in Java using the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP), Hibernate persistance, and SQL/JDBC databases (HSQLDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL).

GenealSimple is a simple way to generate, manage and view a family tree. It is a web-based application realised as a Java applet with MySQL database access. The focus lies on the simple, user friendly and intuitive GUI.

A Java app for the entry, storage, and networking of genealogical information. Unlike most other genealogical database programs, Genealogy uses the rich GENTECH model rather than a custom one or GEDCOM, and can network remote genealogical databases.

Controversial ideas of Williamson, Margulis & others suggest speciation by hybridizing might be more common than originally thought. Taking this concept to the nth degree & assuming that indeed, speciation mostly occurs by hybridizing events, not the accumulation of mutations or genetic drift, here is a catalogueoflife2gedcom converter. It allows the tree of life to be displayed as a human genealogy tree with hybridizing events depicted as "marriages." The idea then is that mutation accrual & genetic drift are the determining factors for "species maturation," not speciation itself. Unfortunately the Catalogue of Life Project, catalogueoflife.org, changed its database format more recently, so this converter only works on older versions of the data. In the last working version of the database, making the assumption that each taxonomic name, no matter what level, refers to an original real species & starting them all as female, over 2 million "species/persons" were generated.

A Gedcom 5.5.1 compliant version of the 2008 PEAR Genealogy_Gedcom package. This new version will utilize PHP 5.3 and be PEAR2 compliant. Support for Gedcom versions prior to 5.5.1 will be evaluated on request once this release becomes stable.

*** WARNING *** This project is only usefull is you already have a file built using Génération 2.0. The "editor" is not part of this project (at the moment). Generation is a family tree editor, that deals with 3 type of trees (parents>root, root>children>children, and parents>root<children). It provides an intuitive graphical interface to navigate within the trees and edit the data.

GenerationX is a genealogy tool for Mac OS X written entirely in Cocoa and conforming to the GEDCOM 5.5 standard for storing genealogy data.

Software that will manage data from genealogical research and provide easy means to share information.

A personal genealogy application for use on (primarily) Linux systems. Data is read from a GEDCOM file and shown in a GUI. This project is still in alpha, so any help is welcome.

Genesis Birds is a software for the complete management of the breeding of birds. Indicated especially for the canarians

Geovision is a system for collaboratively maintaining and viewing geographical data, especially data over time. Other types of historical data and its visualization also lie in the project's future.

OUT OF DATE: See the Singularity project here at sourceforge. This project aims to make the expanse of human knowledge beautifully presentable and the exabytes of data navigable by an average user via the power of a Unified Data Model and 3d visualization layer for the Web. It will invert the top 3 layers of the OSI network model to make a 3-dimensional presentation layer with a peer-to-peer session layer for the Internet. For the curious, there is a simple demo that provides a small sense of the possibilities. Requires: VPython available here or see http://vpython.org.

Resources to support computer aided Egyptologic research. Our products include several open source Ancient Egyptian language dictionaries, cross references, and various software applications and libraries developed to generate these resources.

Gnuology is like a wiki for genealogy. It imports a Gedcom file, and allows your whole extended family to view and edit the data through their favorite web browser.

Graph-RAT is a database abstraction layer designed to make it easy to use a large library of graph-analysis routines on a database as well as add new kinds of algorithms to data mining.

Web-based, graphical ranking interface suitable for improving any web-based polling software which implements ranked voting (e.g. Condorcet, IRV). Written primarily in Javascript, with a small amount of PHP.

Graphl is a generic graph visualization and manipulation tool written in Java. Graphl reads and writes RDF files, visualizes them in a flexible and customizeable way and allows users to edit them intuitively. Please see project homepage for more info...
