The goal of the '''DebianGis''' project is about improving [http://www.debian.org Debian] to make it the best distribution for '''Geographical Information Systems''' applications and users. A good deal of GIS related softwares and libraries (e.g. [http://grass.osgeo.org GRASS GIS], [http://gdal.osgeo.org GDAL], and [http://proj.osgeo.org PROJ.4]) are already present in Debian. Thanks to efforts of the DebianGis team, we currently have many exciting GIS packages in Debian's ''main'' archives. Other programs are well along their way to being included in the archive.
