[Ottawa_users] Map Labelling

[Sampson, David]

Hey Folks,

I'm looking for open source tools that can label maps dynamically.

Examples of proprietary tools would be label EZ by Map Plex
(http://www.maptext.com/)

1. the labels should have conflict detection to eliminate or minimize
over laps.
2. The labels need to follow features like rivers, road or contour lines

Any sugestions?

The only thing I found was this one:

Cheers
