[Freegis-list] looking for something like arc-view

[Carlos Henrique Grohmann de Carvalho]

So, I was thinking about Arcview and how ease is to make a map with symbols 
based on a table. For instance, as a geologist, I can plot foliations or 
bedding plane symbols in the correct place (UTM) and even rotate them, based 
on a table field and yet use another field for legend.
 

 
Now, thinking open-source, is there anything like that for free, and for 
linux? Any suggestions are welcome.
 

 
Thanks.
