OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE
At Bird's Eye View, we specialize in open source software and are a QGIS Certified Training Organization. This means we will issue you a QGIS certificate for any training courses you take from us. We also have decades of experience with ESRI products. This makes us ideally suited to help you integrate software, such as QGIS, into your workflow. We also assist in migrating from commercial software to open source tools, eliminating significant licensing fees without loss of productivity. We work regularly with QGIS, GRASS GIS, SpatiaLite and PostGIS.
