"Interest in geospatial application development is exploding these days. We felt it was critical to provide these valuable resources to the community at large," said Tom Callaghan, click2try Vice President of Technical Services.

Over the last few years, Open Source geospatial technologies have matured and are being used in a range of products such as GPS devices, auto navigation systems, and mobile phone applications, as well as in projects like land use, real estate, urban and traffic planning, water resource management, archaeology, and urban infrastructure maintenance, to name just a few.

"click2try is one more way for developers to get their hands on Arramagong easily," said Cameron Shorter, Arramagong Project Coordinator and Geospatial Solutions Manager at LISAsoft. "Arramagong allows users to easily try out the robust, feature-rich stack of applications offered by Geospatial Open Source. It is a compelling marketing tool for us organizations who support Open Source."
