User-friendly Desktop Internet GIS (uDig) is an open source spatial data viewer/editor, with special emphasis on the OpenGIS standards for internet GIS, the Web Map Server (WMS) and Web Feature Server (WFS) standards.

uDig is:

* **User-friendly**, providing a familiar graphical environment for GIS users;
* **Desktop located**, running natively on Windows, Mac OS/X and Linux;
* **Internet oriented**, consuming standard and de facto geospatial web services; and,
* **GIS ready**, providing the framework on which complex analytical capabilities can be built, and gradually subsuming those capabilities into the main application

For developers uDig provides a common Java platform for building spatial applications with open source components. The website provides series of clear tutorials covering making a simple tool through to releasing your own custom application.
