The OSGeo Foundation

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo), is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to support and promote the collaborative development of open geospatial technologies and data. The foundation provides financial, organizational and legal support to the broader open source geospatial community. It serves as an independent legal entity to which community members can contribute code, funding and other resources, secure in the knowledge that their contributions will be maintained for public benefit. OSGeo also serves as an outreach and advocacy organization for the open source geospatial community, and provides a common forum and shared infrastructure for improving cross-project collaboration.

The foundation’s projects are all freely available and useable under an
OSI-certified open source license.

This Live GIS disc and virtual-machine has been put together by members of the OSGeo community to showcase their favourite Free and Open Source (FOSS) geospatial software. We’ve included a number of non-OSGeo software packages, GIS focused and otherwise, which we hope you will find to be as useful as we do. The OSGeo Foundation does not recommend or guarantee any associated software, projects, or companies found within.

These programs are distributed in the hope that they will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
