Abstract:
Quantum GIS (QGIS) is a user friendly Open Source Geographic Information System (GIS) licensed under the GNU General Public License. QGIS is an official project of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo). It runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OSX, and Windows and supports numerous vector, raster, and database formats and functionalities.
Quantum GIS provides a continuously growing number ... of capabilities provided by core functions and plugins. You can visualize, manage, edit, analyses data, and compose printable maps. Get a first impression with some screenshots and a more detailed feature list.
Quantum GIS is a volunteer driven project. We welcome contributions from in the form of code contributions, bug fixes, bug reports, contributed documentation, advocacy and supporting other users on our mailing lists and the QGIS Forum. If you are interested in actively supporting the project, you can find more information under the development menu and on the QGIS Wiki. We also welcome financial contributions in the form of sponsoring and funding.
Quality
This is pre-release version of QGIS. There are known issues and bugs in this release, however it is still quite functional (see BUGS for a list of known issues). Please follow the installation instructions carefully. After untarring the distribution, you can find the HTML version of the installation document in qgis/doc/index.html. The installation document is also available as PDF in the same directory.
