[Freegis-list] ILWIS is Open!

[Ann Hitchcock (52north)]

Dear FreeGIS List,

As of July 1st, 2007, ILWIS is available (as is and free of charge) as the 52°North open source software ILWIS 3.4 Open. 

The Integrated Land and Water Information System (ILWIS) is a PC-based GIS & Remote Sensing software program developed by ITC. It comprises a complete package of image processing, spatial analysis and digital mapping. ILWIS is easy to learn and use; it has full on-line help, extensive tutorials for direct use in courses and 25 case studies of various disciplines.
  
By migrating to 52°North, ILWIS takes advantage of 52°North's platform for collaborative software development to facilitate the creation and dissemination of new GIS functionality based on ILWIS components within a broader community. All user support is carried by the ILWIS community, which provides up-to-date information regarding ongoing developments.
  
The binaries and source code are published under the GNU General Public License. 

For more information see '52°North Products' and 'Communities' and register for the ILWIS mailing list at www.52north.org.  

Best regards,

Ann Htichcock
