Open Source JavaScript Mapping Software

Leaflet is a leading open source JavaScript library for creating interactive, mobile-friendly maps. Leaflet is light at just about 38 KB, but is already fully equipped with all the mapping features you could need. Leaflet is simple but efficient. It doesn’t try to do everything for everybody, rather it focuses on making the basic things work perfectly. It comes ready with exceptional layering tools, customization features such as pure CSS3 popups and controls, map controls and more right out of the box, and works on all major desktop and mobile platforms. Leaflet also comes with a range of interaction features, and can be extended with an abundance of great plugins.

OpenLayers makes it easy to put a dynamic map in any web page. It can display map tiles, vector data and markers loaded from any source. OpenLayers has been developed to further the use of geographic information of all kinds. It is completely free, Open Source JavaScript, released under the 2-clause BSD License (also known as the FreeBSD). Pull tiles from OSM, Bing, MapBox, Stamen, and any other XYZ source you can find. OGC mapping services and untiled layers also supported. Render vector data from GeoJSON, TopoJSON, KML, GML, Mapbox vector tiles, and other formats. Leverages Canvas 2D, WebGL, and all the latest greatness from HTML5. Mobile support out of the box. Build lightweight custom profiles with just the components you need. Style your map controls with straight-forward CSS. Hook into different levels of the API or use 3rd party libraries to customize and extend functionality.

OSGB Web Map Tools is a set of software code and installation instructions that will enable web developers to produce dynamic mapping web sites using Ordnance Survey map data on the internet.

A collection of Dokuwiki plugins that will enable the user to spatially enable and use the wiki, currently we have: openlayersmap (a map), geotag (ways of geotagging a page)

This SourceForge.net project serves as repository and distribution point for Carbon Five Open Source software and documentation.

It is a Client Application developed in Java that sends simultaneous OGC CSW requests to several metadata catalogues (ebRim or ISO 19115/19119 profile), processes the responses and shows them in a single web page.

The METAR Repository or simply metarr is a web-mapping service, capable of gathering and visualizing METARs (meteorological aviation routine weather reports). So aeronautical weather information becomes browseable on a map, even for "METAR-illiterate"

Map-Fu is a full-featured web mapping interface written using PHP/Javascript that can be modified and used as part of a custom web mapping application. It is designed to function as part of an open source mapping stack including UMN Mapserver.

Platform providing the support for Wireless Sensor Networks in the domain of Natural Hazards as a Service. The objective of the WSN platform is monitoring the behaviour of rockfall barriers, rockfall netting, rock sheds and other protection systems

SOLAPLayers is a cartographic component which enables navigation in geospatial (Spatial OLAP or SOLAP) data cubes. It aims to be integrated into existing dashboard frameworks in order to produce interactive geo-analytical dashboards.

This project exists as a central meeting place for those wishing to share in-house developed applications and tools for local government (and related industries) in Australia.

The project wms2GO is designed to build a local executable WebGIS application out of pre-defined or manual selected WMS (OGC WebMapServices) of free map extract. Thus it is possible to use this application on a mobile device (e.g. a laptop) without any network access. Manuals for Installation and Setup have been added to the SVN. You can find them here: http://wms2go.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wms2go/wms2go-help-1.0/ At the moment, they are only available in german, but this may change in the future. A demo client is published under: http://wms2go.dlz-it.de/
