Autodesk Goes Open Source
Autodesk has joined forces with the leading members of the open source web mapping community to jointly take the next step in open source web mapping technology. The groups working together to launch and sponsor this effort include DM Solutions Group, the University of Minnesota, and Autodesk.
The MapServer Foundation has been established to provide a business and operational framework to better support the ongoing development of open web mapping technologies including MapServer, the most widely-used open source web mapping platform.
Autodesk has contributed its next-generation web mapping platform to the foundation as an open source project.
