Alex
Here's the recent open source / open data geonews covering the last two weeks.
The
OSGeo and the International Cartographic Association (ICA) signed a Memorandum of Understanding
This
Dr JTS entry
mentions
MapQuest's Open Elevation Service
, that we never mentioned before - unrelated, Dr JTS aka Martin Davis, just got hired by OpenGeo
OpenStreetMap for Denmark is now 97.2% complete
, yes, crowdsourcing and open data can succeed, but the servers does cost money, hence the
new OSM Tile usage policy
Here's an entry on
expression-based labeling now in QGIS and the new expression builder
, another one on
QGIS Topological Editing
and we even got a
new QGIS Plugin Builder
R algorithms can now be called from SEXTANTE
