<-- Free GIS Software & Resources
Thuban is an interactive geographic data viewer. Main features are its cross-plattform GUI, extensability and flexibility for deriving individual GIS applications. Thuban is implemented with wxPython which allows its GUI to blend in with desktop on different platforms.
Thuban is implemented using the Python programming language. Python has been choosen as a multi-platform, object-oriented scripting language that allows simple incorporation of modules written in other languages (e.g. computational intensive tasks in C). It is taken care that Thuban is compatible with Python 2.2.1; newer versions should work as well.
As a multi-platform GUI toolkit, Thuban uses wxPython. wxPython is based upon wxWindows, a GUI toolkit that uses a platform's native GUI to embed consistently into the users system (i.e. GTK on Linux or Microsoft Windows NT). Thuban requires wxPython of at least version 2.4.0.4. It is taken care that Thuban is compatible with the latest release of the 2.4 series; newer versions should work as well.
