This is a list of free and open-source software for geological data handling and interpretation. The list is split into broad categories, depending on the intended use of the software and its scope of functionality. Notice that 'free and open-source' requires that the source code is available and users are given a free software license.
Some of the free software mentioned here does not have detailed maps (or maps at all) or the ability to follow streets or type in street names (no geocoding). However, in many cases, it is also that which makes the program free (and sometimes open source [ 1 ] ), avoid the need of an Internet connection, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] and make it very ...
LuciadLightspeed consists of over 100 different software components and connectors to fuse, visualize and analyze geospatial data. This can include static and moving data, maps, satellite imagery, crowd-sourced data, full motion video, weather data and terrain elevation in many different geodetic references and map projections.
FalconView – A mapping system created by the Georgia Tech Research Institute for Windows. A free, open source version is available. Kalypso – Uses Java and GML3. Focuses mainly on numerical simulations in water management. TerraView – Handles vector and raster data stored in a relational or geo-relational database, i.e. a frontend for ...
Global Mapper is a geographic information system software package currently developed by Blue Marble Geographics that runs on Microsoft Windows. Global Mapper handles both vector, raster, and elevation data, and provides viewing, conversion, and other general GIS features.
Maptitude is a mapping software program, a mapping tool, and a Geographic Information System (GIS) created by Caliper Corporation that allows users to view, edit and integrate maps. The software is designed to allow the geographical visualization and analysis of either included data or custom external data.
Version 8.0 also introduces the analysis of free form surfaces, called "Shells" in the software. Version 9.0 (June 2021) completes the "shells" (free form surfaces) with surface texture analysis adapted from the ISO 25178 parameters already calculated on the standard surfaces.
The Map Overlay and Statistical System (MOSS), is a GIS software technology. Development of MOSS began in late 1977 and was first deployed for use in 1979. MOSS represents a very early public domain, open source GIS development - predating the better known GRASS by 5 years.
