The document discusses the history and current state of open source geographic information systems (GIS) software and data. It notes that while open source GIS software has advanced greatly in recent years, open data is still lacking. It emphasizes that open source software is useless without open data, and highlights examples of open data projects and communities around the world that are helping to make data freely available to support open GIS initiatives.
