GIS Viewer 3.0
http://elib.cs.berkeley.edu/gis/
GIS Viewer 3.0 is a new web-based tool for displaying and manipulating layers of geographical points and vectors, and raster data such as maps and images.  GIS Viewer 3.0 is designed to scale from data sets covering the entire earth to high-resolution imagery of fine details.  It has many applications, from locating, annotating, and sharing information about interesting features of the large geographic data sets, to presenting geopositioned data sets in useful contexts, to allowing users to pan and zoom museum image collections.

Untaring the file gis3.tar will produce a directory named gis3 with several subdirectories and files. (...) The directory src contains the java source files for the viewer. (...)
