| + | ====== R&D in Geoinformatics at INPE ====== | ||
| + | INPE (Brazil´s National Institute for Space Research) has supported R&D activities in Geoinformatics since the early 1980s. For papers and presentations, please see [[http://www.terralib.org|TerraLib´s web site]] and [[http://www.dpi.inpe.br/gilberto|Gilberto Camara´s site]]. | ||

| + | ===== Geospatial information engineering ===== | ||
| + | GI Engineering activities at INPE started in 1982, with the development of the SITIM/SGI system (1986-1995). SITIM/SGI was Brazil’s first GIS+IP system. Running on MS-DOS, it needed an add-on graphics card of 1024x1024x24 bits. It was used extensively by 150 universities and research labs, up to 1996. | ||

| + | In 1992, INPE started the development of [[http://www.dpi.inpe.br/spring | SPRING]]. SPRING provides a comprehensive set of functions for processing of spatial information, including tools for Satellite Image Processing, Digital Terrain Modelling, Spatial Analysis, Geostatistics, Spatial Statistics, Spatial Databases and Map Management. The software is avaliable free on the Web, and as of June 2008, had more than 100,000 registered users. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Since 2001, INPE has been developing [[http://www.terralib.org | TerraLib]], an open-source GIS software library. TerraLib supports large-scale applications using socio-economic and environmental data. TerraLib supports coding of geographical applications using spatial databases, and stores data in different DBMS including MySQL and PostgreSQL. | ||
