High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! GIS Live DVD is a type of the thematic Live CDs containing GIS/RS applications and related tutorials, and sample data sets. The general sense of a GIS Live DVD is to demonstrate the power of FLOSS GIS and encourage users to start on FLOSS GIS. However a disc can be used GIS data processing and training too. A disc usually includes some selected Linux based or Wine (software) enabled Windows applications for GIS and Remote Sensing use. Using this disc the end users can execute GIS functions to get experience in Free and open source software solutions or solve some simple business operations. The set-up and the operating behaviour of the applications can also be studied prior to building real FLOSS GIS based systems. Recently a LiveDVD image is stored and booted from USB (Live USB).
