SUTTON, T. & DASSAU, O. (2011): "FOSS GIS meets biodiversity - the Quantum GIS Project".Published in Geoinformatics Magazine. September 2011.
Abstract: The Quantum GIS Project (QGIS), is an example of open source software. The desktop software component of QGIS surely falls under the umbrella of a sturdy effort to democratise technology – the 1.6 release of the software had around 190 000 downloads and is intensively used around the world. In this article, a project from linfiniti.com in Tanzania is described, where Free and Open Source GIS Software is being leveraged to great effect.
