uDIG 1.1 is Released
Refractions Research is pleased to announce the release of uDig 1.1. The previous release established uDIG as a highly customizable, open source, geospatial development platform with access to local data, a variety of databases and other Internet sources. Development of this second release has been made possible by the uDIG open source community, with special thanks to Hydrologis, Axios, Camp2Camp and Refractions. New functionality and an increased level of maturity make the platform even more attractive.
New capabilities of uDig 1.1 include:
Original development of uDIG in 2004 was supported in part by Canada's GeoConnections / GeoInnovations program.
