The deegree framework - Spatial Data Infrastructure solution for end-users and developers

The open source software framework deegree is a comprehensive implementation of standards as defined by ISO and Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). It has been developed with two goals in mind: provide a uniform framework for implementing Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) and adhering to standards as strictly as possible. Although being open source software (Lesser GNU Public License, LGPL), deegree has been developed with a business model in mind: providing the general building blocks of SDIs without license fees and offer customization, consulting and tailoring by specialized companies.
