uDig parent project containing all core components. More plugins can be found in community repos: http://github.com/uDig-Community

uDig Overview

The User-friendly Desktop Internet GIS (uDig) is an open source (EPL + BSD) desktop application framework, built with the Eclipse Rich Client (RCP) technology.

• uDig can be used as a stand-alone application
• uDig can be extended with RCP “plug-ins”
• uDig can be used as a plug-in in an existing RCP application

uDig is an open project, with developers from multiple companies participating in the decision making process and project direction, or open discussions using chat tools such as Gitter or mailing lists:

• uDig User (How to use uDig as RCP Application)
• uDig Developer (How to develop uDig and build Applications with SDK)

Project Outline

The goal of uDig is to provide a complete Java solution for desktop GIS data access, editing, and viewing. uDig aims to be:

• User friendly, providing a familiar graphical environment for GIS users;
• Desktop located, running as a thick client, natively on Windows, Mac OS/X and Linux;
• Internet oriented, consuming standard (WMS, WFS, WCS) and de facto (GeoRSS, KML, tiles) geospatial web services; and,
• GIS ready, providing the framework on which complex analytical capabilities can be built, and gradually subsuming those capabilities into the main application.
