Stefan Steiniger - Building on Open Source GIS @ COSSFest 2010
Implementation of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) for local governments and companies is a task that has gained ample attention in recent years.

This is an overview of free and open source projects that develop and maintain GIS software that fit within these categories.
