[OSGeo-Discuss] Anyone know of a FOSS GIS solution to creating terrain profiles from contours lines or an elevation raster (DEM)?

[Stefan Steiniger]

yep, just copied the profile tool a month ago or so to work with 
OpenJUMP (but not yet in the nightly build). Though... only for a DEM 
and not contour lines.

thanks to Victor Olaya for the Sextante version (I guess he also did the 
Saga version)!
