In order to visualize spatial data via web services in this and other spatial data infrastructure is necessary to use viewfinders. They should be able to view maps of service standards meet the specifications of the OGC and ISO standards.

In the event that any user wishing to use a different display to that used in geoportal provide some links to some viewers outside of the Spatial Data Infrastructure of Andalusia, while other Spatial Data Infrastructure development companies.

The spatial information viewers can be classified as embedded browsers, light clients or heavy clients depending on whether you can use and access via a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari, etc) or local installation.

Below is a list of Open Source viewers or customers, classified by type, embedded, light or heavy, to access the information on this and other spatial data infrastructure.

Web Viewers

Light Clients

Openlayers:

OpenLayers makes it easy to display a dynamic map in any web page. Can display maps and markers loaded from any source. OpenLayers is completely free, open source and released under the BSD license.

 It is a JavaScript library to display maps in most modern browsers, not the server side, client side implements a JavaScript API for building modern web applications geographic, similar to that of Google Maps and MSN Virtual Earth API, with one important difference: OpenLayers is Free Software, developed by and for the community of open source software because it is a project of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo).
 
OpenLayers implements industry-standard methods for accessing geographic data, such as the OpenGIS Consortium Web Mapping Service (WMS) and Web Feature Service (WFS), OpenLayers is written in object-oriented JavaScript, using components Prototype . js Rico and the library.

As a framework, OpenLayers is intended to separate the tools to display maps from the map data so that all tools work with different data sources. This breaks with the idea of having to visualize spatial information through its own applications developers or providers of spatial information.

Mapbender

Mapbender is the tip of the iceberg, a meta layer of software providing access to all services IDE. a project of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo). It allows a full map navigation (zoom, pan, queries, adding more maps). You can also add new points to the map, etc.
 
Mapbender is a management portal and software for geographic data based on OGC OWS architectures. The software provides web technology for managing spatial data services implemented in PHP, JavaScript and XML and licensed under the GNU GPL. It offers a data model and interfaces to view, navigate and view the OGC compliant map services. Mapbender also provides authentication and authorization services, OWS proxy functionality, management interfaces for user, group and project management services Web GIS.
 
End user interfaces are modular, they show only the required functionality. At the same time, it is possible to create interfaces with a security proxy, scanning, automatic adjustment and more.
 
The management interface gives administrators the autonomy they need to keep and classify and map services allow access to individuals, groups and other services. Using standardized services such as WMS and transactional WFS allows use of different services interoperable map servers.

Gvsig

gvSIG is a tool oriented to manage geographic information, which is distributed under GNU GPL. It is characterized by a friendly interface, being able to access the most usual form of both raster and vector agile as well as interactive maps that meet the specifications of the OGC. This is one of the main features of gvSIG over other Geographic Information System, the implementation of important services OGC: WMS (Web Map Service), WFS (Web Feature Service), WCS (Web Coverage Service), Service Catalog and Service gazetteer.

Is developed in Java programming language, running Microsoft Windows operating systems, Linux and Mac OS X, and uses standard GIS libraries recognized as Geotools or Java Topology Suite (JTS). Likewise, gvSIG has a scripting language based on Jython and also can be created using extensions in Java classes gvSIG.
 
Among the file formats of most popular among those with access to vector formats GML, SHP, DXF, DWG, DGN, KML, and raster image formats such as MrSID, GeoTIFF, ENVI, or ECW.

Kosmo

Kosmo is a GIS desktop advanced features. It is the first component of a series of developments that are under way and that, from now on,  being made available to the entire community.
