Subject: [OSGeo-Announce] gvSIG update version 1.1.1 and 3D pilot extension
 for gvSIG 1.1.1 are available
Message-ID: <478BA0DB.4090103@pobox.com>

gvSIG 1.1.1, a partial update of gvSIG 1.1, is now available for
download in which some problems detected by our users have been fixed,
so it is possible to working normally with the application. gvSIG is the
Generalitat Valenciana free System Information Geographic software

and characterized by a quick access to the most usual raster and vector
formats.

As usual, it can be downloaded from the Download section of the web page
(http://www.gvsig.gva.es/index.php?id=1731&L=2).

The problems fixed in this distribution can be checked from the Release
Notes Section (http://www.gvsig.gva.es/index.php?id=1741&L=2&K=1) and to
install the partial update you must have gvSIG 1.1 correctly installed.

On the other hand, the pilot application awarded the development
contract for the 3D Extension by the Regional Ministry of Infrastructure
and Transport is available too. It allows the creation of 3D Views,
XYZ-projected as well as spherical (planetary), where local and remote
data sources can be loaded as layers, and displayed using most of the
options available in 2D like transparency, labeling, legends, etc.

It's available in the Extensions section of the web page
(http://www.gvsig.gva.es/index.php?id=1835&L=2) and to install this
extension you must have correctly installed gvSIG 1.1.1 version.
