Layers can be selected and added to the map canvas collection however
the rendering code is currently disabled and being reorganized. So if
you add a layer, nothing will be drawn...

This code is preliminary and really has no true functionality other than
the ability to define a PostGIS connection and display the spatially enabled
tables that could be loaded.
This is the initial import of the code base into CVS on Sourceforge.net.

Quantum GIS (QGIS) is designed to be a Geographic Information System (GIS)
built for Linux/Unix. QGIS will offer support for vector and raster formats
and provide a comprehensive GIS.
While planning is still underway, some of the initial ideas for
features include:
* Read and edit shapefiles
* Display georeferenced rasters (tiff, png, geotiff)
* Plugins to dynamically add new functionality to the application
* Support for database tables
* Support for spatially enabled tables in PostgreSql using PostGIS
* Map output
* Script engine
* Metadata support
Preliminary Standards
QGis will be developed using the following:
* Qt GUI library
* Doxygen for documenting the API
Resources
PostGIS Geographic Objects for PostgreSQL
Shapefile specification
FGDC Metadata
