Hi Arun,
here you have several workshops/webinars in English about gvSIG, an open
source GIS, that can be interesting for you:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plEkha9Zo0Y
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoy-JwkFPeo
http://www.gvsig.com/en/diffusion/educational-material/-/asset_publisher/LOsLdYA88rU2/content/workshop-gvsig-desktop-new-features
http://www.gvsig.com/es/divulgacion/material-didactico/-/asset_publisher/LOsLdYA88rU2/content/introduction-to-gvsig-2-1-workshop
http://www.gvsig.com/es/divulgacion/material-didactico/-/asset_publisher/LOsLdYA88rU2/content/gis-for-disaster-risk-management
They are not specified for remote sensing tools, but they can help you
to start.
Then, if you access to the Tools->Geoprocessing->Toolbox menu from a
View, you can find more than 200 geoprocessing tools, including several
ones for remote sensing.
You can download the application from

Hi Mario,
Impressive piece of software. I have been playing with Qgis and for what I
see it is quite similar. How would you compare both?
Are you attending the conference in Hyderabad?

Hi Rahul,
Thanks for the reply.
I noticed that the comparison is dated (Aug 2011), since then Qgis has
changed a lot.
It is true that FOSS means that you can test different software without
expending money. But regardless if the software is free or not, the time
that takes to learn a tool and its capabilities cost time and time is money.
So I see four types of audience:
- casual users: In this category you have people that do not need to use
the tool daily but once in a while or may be once to do part of their job.
These users would want to use the tool with the shallowest learning curve
and simplest UI.
- core users: These are those that gis is their main work, They will learn
multiple tools and use them accordingly to their current task.
- Trainers: Will want to show how you can use different tools to achieve
the same goals or to mix tools to achieve a complex task.
- Developers: These group would take advantage of the FOSS license, you can
do copy/paste between projects source code and depending which tool is
their favorite, they will copy whatever functionality they find in the
other tool that may benefit their own code. Cheers to that.
From my point of view, qGis has a nice UI, it has some good tutorials
online and some books that will teach anyone not only how to use the tool
but also some background on GIS. Packtpub has a large collection on books
for GIS.

Meir

Hi,
as you say, they are quite similar. That's an approximated comparison,
but it was made almost five years ago and they have grown a lot. As far
as I know, some of the named QGIS pros are included in the latest
version of gvSIG. The comparison was made on the 1.11 version, and now
there is a 2.x branch with a lot of new features and a new architecture,
that allows to develop new plugins without affecting other parts of the
application. It's more stable than 1.x branch.
Some of these features are: Raster projection on-the-fly, portable
version for Windows, Linux and Mac, access to R
(https://blog.gvsig.org/2016/09/29/towards-gvsig-2-3-r-extension/), or a
powerful scripting module
(https://blog.gvsig.org/2016/12/05/course-about-geographic-scripting-with-gvsig-desktop-documentation-released/).
There's also an application for mobile devices (Android) called
Geopaparazzi that is compatible with gvSIG (here you can see the
workshop given at the International gvSIG Conference some weeks ago:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imf7Zdyb6Ek).
Another novelties are that the new 3D extension in gvSIG 2.x is based on
the World Wind application of NASA and the access to LiDAR data from
gvSIG 2.3.1.
I forgot to send you another interesting links:
Meir, I won't be in the conference in Hyderabad, but I'm contacting a
collaborator from India who probably will go. I will let you know it.
Best regards,
Mario

Hi Rahul,
Thanks for the reply.
I noticed that the comparison is dated (Aug 2011), since then Qgis has
changed a lot.
It is true that FOSS means that you can test different software without
expending money. But regardless if the software is free or not, the time
that takes to learn a tool and its capabilities cost time and time is money.
So I see four types of audience:
- casual users: In this category you have people that do not need to use
the tool daily but once in a while or may be once to do part of their job.
These users would want to use the tool with the shallowest learning curve
and simplest UI.
- core users: These are those that gis is their main work, They will learn
multiple tools and use them accordingly to their current task.
- Trainers: Will want to show how you can use different tools to achieve
the same goals or to mix tools to achieve a complex task.
- Developers: These group would take advantage of the FOSS license, you
can do copy/paste between projects source code and depending which tool is
their favorite, they will copy whatever functionality they find in the
other tool that may benefit their own code. Cheers to that.
From my point of view, qGis has a nice UI, it has some good tutorials
online and some books that will teach anyone not only how to use the tool
but also some background on GIS. Packtpub has a large collection on books
for GIS.

Hi Mario,
Impressive piece of software. I have been playing with Qgis and for what
I see it is quite similar. How would you compare both?
Are you attending the conference in Hyderabad?

Hi Arun,
here you have several workshops/webinars in English about gvSIG, an open
source GIS, that can be interesting for you:

They are not specified for remote sensing tools, but they can help you to
start.
Then, if you access to the Tools->Geoprocessing->Toolbox menu from a
View, you can find more than 200 geoprocessing tools, including several
ones for remote sensing.
