[Qgis-user] QGIS for safe organization use.

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi,

Your data is your data!  It will be safe if you keep it safe.  If you have any concerns regarding the safety of QGIS, send a mail to the NRCAN Canadian mapping service in Sherbrooke Quebec.  They use QGIS and other products.  Between you and me, I would stick with QGIS as ArcGIS could lock you into proprietary file formats.  I would say ArcGIS is the best alternative to QGIS!

An important part of the project will be to create a geodatabase containing crucial information about each building. After, I plan to create a layer that will show the location of these buildings on a map.
