About MapGuide
MapGuide Open Source is an advanced platform for web-based geospatial application development, data update, and publishing. MapGuide incredibly flexible, being cross-platform (Windows and Linux) and cross-language (PHP, Java, and ASP.Net). It includes a strong geospatial processing API, and a large number of output formats, such as image (PNG, JPG, etc), WMS, WFS, and KML. In addition, by leveraging the flexible FDO Open Source data abstraction library, MapGuide can access multiple data sources, such as MySQL, PostGIS, Oracle, ArcSDE, Shape Files, and SDF.
