SAGA - System for Automated Geoscientific Analyses - is a Geographic Information System (GIS) software with immense capabilities for geodata processing and analysis. SAGA is programmed in the object oriented C++ language and supports the implementation of new functions with a very effective Application Programming Interface (API). Functions are organised as modules in framework independent Module Libraries and can be accessed via SAGA’s Graphical User Interface (GUI) or various scripting environments (shell scripts, Python, R, ...). Please provide the following reference in your work if you are using SAGA: Conrad, O., Bechtel, B., Bock, M., Dietrich, H., Fischer, E., Gerlitz, L., Wehberg, J., Wichmann, V., and Boehner, J. (2015): System for Automated Geoscientific Analyses (SAGA) v. 2.1.4. Geosci. Model Dev., 8, 1991-2007, https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-8-1991-2015.

QGIS
Cross platform (lin/win/mac) geographical information system (GIS)
Create, edit, visualize, analyze and publish geospatial information on Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD and mobile devices. For your desktop, server, in your web browser and as developer libraries. QGIS is a user-friendly open-source Geographic Information System (GIS) licensed under the GNU General Public License. QGIS is an official project of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo). It runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OSX, Windows and Android and supports numerous vector, raster, and database formats and functionalities. QGIS provides a continously growing number of capabilities provided by core functions and plugins. You can visualize, manage, edit, analyze data, and compose printable maps. We also collect case studies of how people all over the world use QGIS for their GIS work. You can view combinations of vector and raster data (in 2D or 3D) in different formats and projections without conversion to an internal or common format. -

detectproj
Automated detection of the unknown early map projection
New scientific software supporting the automated detection of the early map projection and its parameters. Useful for studying and analysis of different kinds of maps with the lack of information about the map projection. The analysis is based on the minimization of residuals between control points on the early and current reference maps. Designed for cartographers as well as for enthusiasts. Available free of charge. The awareness of the map projection is primarily important for: • refinement of spatial georeference for the medium- and small-scale maps, • analysis of the knowledge about the former world, • location of the incorrectly/inaccurately drawn map regions. Sytem requirements: • 2 GHz or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor. • 2 GB RAM (32-bit) or 4 GB RAM (64-bit) system. • 120 MB available hard disk space. • JDK 1.8 +. • Internet connection (download speed > 2Mb/s -

Orfeo ToolBox
OTB is an open-source C++ library for remote sensing images processing
The Orfeo Toolbox is a C++ library for high resolution remote sensing image processing. It is developped by CNES in the frame of the ORFEO program. More information is available at www.orfeo-toolbox.org It is based on the medical image processing library ITK and offers particular functionalities for remote sensing image processing in general and for high spatial resolution images in particular. Targeted algorithms for high resolution optical images (SPOT, Quickbird, Worldview, Landsat, Ikonos), hyperspectral sensors (Hyperion) or SAR (TerraSarX, ERS, Palsar) are available. Orfeo ToolBox has three main access depending on the category of user: write processing chains in C++ using existing filters or creating new ones, use the OTB applications, which is a plugin-based framework allowing to extend high-level processing chains from various environment ( command-line, QT, QGis, Python....) or use Monteverdi, a software for everyday life image manipulation and analysis. -
